Abstract:
1. An LED (light emitting diode) lamp, comprising: a plurality of light-emitting elements, each said light-emitting element having two electrodes; sub-mounts for mounting and for interconnecting said light-emitting elements, each said sub-mount directly contacting one of the two electrodes of a light-emitting element, said sub-mount thereby serving as an electrical interface for said directly-connected electrode; and at least one conductive member, wherein said light-emitting elements are electrically connected by using the electrode not directly connected to a sub-mount and by using the sub-mounts, such that one of said at least one conductive member interconnects two light-emitting elements using the electrodes of said two light-emitting elements that are not directly connected to its sub-mount.
