PRIMARY OPTICS ARRAY FOR A LIGHT-EMITTING ARRAY

A light-emitting apparatus includes light-emitting and primary optics arrays. The light-emitting array includes multiple light-emitting pixel elements, each emitting at one of one or more output wavelengths. The primary optics array includes multiple metastructured primary optical elements, each receiving output light from a corresponding pixel element and redirecting that light to form a portion of array output light. Different primary optical elements receive pixel output light from different corresponding pixel elements. The primary optical elements differ from one another with respect to structural arrangement of their corresponding metastructures. Those different arrangements result in differing collimation, propagation directions, or angular radiation distributions of the corresponding portions of array output light emitted by different pixel elements of the light-emitting array.
