Abstract
An LED lighting unit comprising a support structure (), an LED-based light emitting structure () mounted within the support structure and an optical beam shaping arrangement () over the top of the support structure. The optical beam shaping arrangement comprises an optically transparent and thermally stable material, and the support structure supports the microstructured layer at a small height above the LED-based light emitting structure. This height may for example be less than 0.5 mm. The optical beam shaping arrangement enables a compact and low height lighting unit to be mounted on a carrier by reflow soldering without damaging the optical beam-shaping component.
