  • Publication number: 20090078948
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an illuminator (10) comprising a substrate (12), a structured conductive layer (16) applied to one surface of the substrate, and at least one light source (18, 26) connected to the structured conductive layer. The illuminator is characterized in that it further comprises an unstructured reflective layer (24) applied on top of said structured conductive layer, which unstructured reflective layer has an essentially continuous extension at least in a surrounding of the at least one light source. Due to the unstructured reflective layer, the optical efficiency of the illuminator can be improved. The invention also relates to a method for producing such illuminator.
