The light-emitting array is disposed over the carrier and includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that each has at least two electrical contacts electrically connected to conductive elements by an electrical connection featuring solder.

A light-emitting structure includes a semiconductor light-emitting element, a first connection point and a reflective element. The semiconductor light-emitting element includes a bottom surface, a top surface opposite to the bottom surface, and a side surface arranged between the bottom surface and the top surface. The first connection point is arranged on the bottom surface.

Embodiments relate to use of a particle accelerator beam to form thin films of material from a bulk substrate are described. In particular embodiments, a bulk substrate having a top surface is exposed to a beam of accelerated particles. In certain embodiments, this bulk substrate may comprise GaN; in other embodiments this bulk substrate may comprise (111) single crystal silicon. Then, a thin film or wafer of material is separated from the bulk substrate by performing a controlled cleaving process along a cleave region formed by particles implanted from the beam. In certain embodiments this separated material is incorporated directly into an optoelectronic device, for example a GaN film cleaved from GaN bulk material. In some embodiments, this separated material may be employed as a template for further growth of semiconductor materials (e.g. GaN) that are useful for optoelectronic devices.

Semiconductor LED layers are epitaxially grown on a patterned surface of a sapphire substrate. The patterned surface improves light extraction. The LED layers include a p-type layer and an n-type layer. The LED layers are etched to expose the n-type layer. One or more first metal layers are patterned to electrically contact the p-type layer and the n-type layer to form a p-metal contact and an n-metal contact. A dielectric polymer stress-buffer layer is spin-coated over the first metal layers to form a substantially planar surface over the first metal layers. The stress-buffer layer has openings exposing the p-metal contact and the n-metal contact. Metal solder pads are formed over the stress-buffer layer and electrically contact the p-metal contact and the n-metal contact through the openings in the stress-buffer layer. The stress-buffer layer acts as a buffer to accommodate differences in CTEs of the solder pads and underlying layers.
