Abstract:
A light-emitting element () is disclosed. A light emitting diode (LED) includes a sapphire substrate () having front and back sides (), and a plurality of semiconductor layers () deposited on the front side () of the sapphire substrate (). The semiconductor layers () define a light-emitting structure that emits light responsive to an electrical input. A metallization stack () includes an adhesion layer () deposited on the back side () of the sapphire substrate (), and a solderable layer () connected to the adhesion layer () such that the solderable layer () is secured to the sapphire substrate () by the adhesion layer (). A support structure () is provided on which the LED is disposed. A solder bond () is arranged between the LED and the support structure (). The solder bond () secures the LED to the support structure ().
