Zusammenfassung:0A light source, includes a component for emitting light, arranged to emit a major part of light generated within the component through a face of the component, and at least one structure for coupling out light, having a base in contact with the face of the component and arranged to emit light through an aperture opposite the base. An interface between the component and an environment surrounding the base is arranged to keep at least part of the light generated in the component confined to at least a layer of the component adjoining the base. The base is in contact with the face over an area (A) smaller than the area (A) of the face.
