1. An electronic device comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel; and
a backlight unit that provides backlight for the liquid crystal display panel, wherein the backlight unit comprises:
an array of light-emitting diodes arranged in a plurality of cells, wherein the plurality of cells is arranged in rows and columns, wherein the rows extend in a first direction, wherein the columns extend in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction, wherein each cell has a width that extends in the first direction and a height that extends in the second direction, wherein each cell includes at least one light-emitting diode, wherein the array of light-emitting diodes is arranged in a light-emitting area, wherein the light-emitting area has an edge that extends in the first direction, wherein the light-emitting area has a notch in the edge, wherein the notch extends in the second direction, wherein a first row of the rows is interrupted by the notch, wherein a second row of the rows is not interrupted by the notch, wherein all of the cells in the first row have a first height, and wherein all of the cells in the second row have a second height that is less than the first height; and
at least one light spreading layer that is formed over the array of light-emitting diodes.
