US Patent 7651254 Microchip matrix light source module

A microchip matrix light source module includes at least two LEDs formed on a surface of a substrate. The light source further includes a light reflector formed on a surface upon which the LEDs are formed and interposed between the LEDs and configured to reflect and thereby redirect laterally emitted light from the two LEDs. The light reflector may include an inner body. The body may be covered, in part or in whole, with a light reflecting layer such as a metal layer. The body of the light reflector may include a layer corresponding to a layer in one of the two LEDs.
