Claim 12:
13. A method of making a light converting optical system as recited in claim 1, wherein the second optical layer comprises an area-distributed array of linear cylindrical lenses integrally formed in a surface of an optically transmissive sheet substrate, wherein the second optical layer is configured to receive light at a first location and guide the received light towards a different location using optical transmission and total internal reflection and comprises an area-distributed plurality of discrete surface relief structures each having a curvilinear wall, wherein the linear cylindrical lenses are disposed side by side and extend parallel to each other between two opposite edges of the optically transmissive sheet substrate, wherein a total area of each of the plurality of discrete surface relief structures is less than a total area of each of the linear cylindrical lenses by at least 20 times, wherein the plurality of discrete surface relief structures is disposed in an energy receiving relationship with respect to the area-distributed array of linear cylindrical lenses, wherein at least one of the discrete surface relief structures comprises a cavity, and wherein at least one of the discrete surface relief structures comprises a protrusion.
