Abstract:
An illumination apparatus comprises a plurality of LEDs aligned to an array of directional optical elements wherein the LEDs are substantially at the input aperture of respective optical elements. An electrode array is formed on the array of optical elements to provide at least a first electrical connection to the array of LED elements. Advantageously such an arrangement provides low cost and high efficiency from the directional LED array.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for manufacturing an illumination apparatus, the method comprising:\n forming a monolithic array of light-emitting elements; selectively removing a plurality of light-emitting elements from the monolithic array by adhering them to a first adhesive substrate in a manner that preserves the relative spatial position of the selectively removed light-emitting elements, transferring the plurality of light-emitting elements from the first adhesive substrate to a second adhesive substrate in a manner that preserves the relative spatial position of the selectively removed light-emitting elements; and transferring the plurality of light-emitting elements from the second adhesive substrate to a support substrate in a manner that preserves the relative spatial position of the selectively removed light-emitting elements; wherein the plurality of light-emitting elements that are selectively removed from the monolithic array are selected such that, in at least one direction, for at least one pair of the selectively removed light-emitting elements in the at least one direction, for each respective pair there is at least one respective light-emitting element that is not selected that was positioned in the monolithic array between the pair of selectively removed light-emitting elements in the at least one direction.
