LIGHT SOURCE HAVING A REFRACTIVE ELEMENT

摘要

A light emitting apparatus includes a substrate, a plurality of solid state light emitting cells having a planar arrangement on the substrate, and a refractive element arranged with the solid state light emitting cells so that light emitted from the light source has a substantially spherical emission pattern. The refractive element may also be arranged with the solid state light emitting cells to mix the emitted light.
