Micro light-emitting diodes (LED) are distanced from a mirror layer that reflects light emitted by the LEDs to increase the light extraction efficiency of the LEDs. In some embodiments, micro LEDs are electrically coupled to the mirror layer by vias positioned at an end of the LED positioned proximate to the mirror layer. In other embodiments, a conductive layer is positioned adjacent to an electrode of multiple micro LEDs and a pillar contacts the conductive layer at a location where the conductive layer is not positioned adjacent to a micro LED electrode. Vias and pillars allow the mirror height to be increased relative to structures where micro LEDs extend into a mirror layer. Increasing the mirror height can reduce the amount of destructive interference at a release layer caused by reflections of LED-emitted light by the mirror layer when the release layer is ablated via laser irradiation.

Disclosed are dielectric cavity arrays with cavities formed by pairs of dielectric tips, wherein the cavities have low mode volume (e.g., 7*10.sup.−5λ.sup.3, where X is the resonance wavelength of the cavity array), and large quality factor Q (e.g., 10.sup.6 or more). Applications for such dielectric cavity arrays include, but are not limited to, Raman spectroscopy, second harmonic generation, optical signal detection, microwave-to-optical transduction, and as light emitting devices.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and more particularly edge structures for light shaping in LED chips are disclosed. Edge structures may include a repeating pattern of features that is formed along one or more mesa sidewalls of active LED structure mesas. Such active LED structure mesas may include a p-type layer, an active layer, and at least a portion of an n-type layer. Features of the repeating pattern may be configured with a size and/or shape to promote redirection of laterally propagating light from the active layer at the mesa sidewalls. In this manner, light that may otherwise escape the LED chip at the mesa sidewalls may be redirected toward an intended emission direction for the LED chip. Certain aspects include reflective structures that are provided on the active LED structures mesas and are further arranged to extend past the active LED structure mesas to cover the repeating pattern of features.
