Abstract
A light source, specifically an LED or laser diode with a light-emitting surface from which light can be emitted during operation of the light source. An optical element made of transparent material is provided, into which the light emitted by the surface can be beamed. The optical element is molded onto at least one surface formed on the light source using a molding method. A gap is formed between the light-emitting surface and optical element.
