Abstract

Embodiments of the invention include LED lighting systems and methods. For example, in some embodiments, an LED lighting system is included. The LED lighting system can include a flexible layered circuit structure that can include a top thermally conductive layer, a middle electrically insulating layer, a bottom thermally conductive layer, and a plurality of light emitting diodes mounted on the top layer. The LED lighting system can further include a housing substrate and a mounting structure. The mounting structure can be configured to suspend the layered circuit structure above the housing substrate with an air gap disposed in between the bottom thermally conductive layer of the flexible layered circuit structure and the housing substrate. The distance between the layered circuit structure and the support layer can be at least about 0.5 mm. Other embodiments are also included herein.
