1. A light-emitting apparatus connectible to a thermal management system, the apparatus comprising:
- a) a carrier including one or more light transmission regions; and
b) one or more light-emitting elements for generating light, each of the one or more light-emitting elements mounted on a substrate having a cooling interface, the substrate being inferiorly mounted onto the carrier in order that each of the one or more light-emitting elements are proximate to one of the one or more light transmission regions, wherein the cooling interface is directed away from the carrier and is adapted for connection to a thermal management system;
wherein the one or more light-emitting elements are adapted for connection to a source of power for activation thereof.

Abstract
The present invention provides a mounting assembly for one or more light-emitting elements, wherein the mounting assembly is configured such that the one or more light-emitting elements are inferiorly connected to a carrier. The carrier comprises one or more light transmission regions, wherein each of the one or more light-emitting elements is aligned with a light transmission region enabling light to pass through the carrier. The inferior mounting of the light-emitting elements can provide ease of thermal access to a cooling interface associated with the one or more light-emitting elements by a thermal management system.

22. A method for forming a light-emitting apparatus connectible to a thermal management system, the method comprising the steps of:
-
a) providing a carrier having one or more light transmission regions; b) aligning one or more light-emitting elements with one of the light transmission regions, each of the one or more light-emitting elements having a cooling interface; c) inferiorly coupling the one or more light-emitting elements to the carrier; thereby forming the light-emitting apparatus.
