In one aspect, the present application discloses a light source comprising an LED die optically coupled to an extractor comprising a plurality of optical elements each having a base, an apex smaller than the base, and a converging side extending between the base and the apex. The extractor base is no greater in size than the emitting surface of the LED die. In another aspect, methods of making light sources are disclosed, comprising the steps of providing an LED die having an emitting surface; forming a plurality of optical elements each having a base, an apex smaller than the base, and a converging side extending between the base and the apex; arranging the plurality of optical elements to form an extractor, the extractor having an extractor base no greater in size than the emitting surface; and optically coupling the extractor base to the emitting surface of the LED die.
