Abstract:
A multi-dimensional solid state lighting (SSL) device array system and method are disclosed. An SSL device includes a support, a pillar having several sloped facets mounted to the support, and a flexible substrate pressed against the pillar. The substrate can carry a plurality of solid state emitters (SSEs) facing in various directions corresponding to the sloped facets of the pillar. The flexible substrate can be a flat substrate prepared using planar mounting techniques, such as wirebonding techniques, before bending the substrate against the pillar.
