Patent attributes
Disclosed herein are techniques for bonding LED components. According to certain embodiments, a first component is bonded to a second component using dielectric bonding and metal bonding. The first component includes an active light emitting layer between oppositely doped semiconductor layers. The second component includes a substrate having a different thermal expansion coefficient than the first component. First contacts of the first component are aligned to second contacts of the second component. A dielectric material of the first component is then bonded to a dielectric material of the second component. The metal bonding is performed between the first contacts and the second contacts, after the dielectric bonding, and using annealing. The bonded structure has a concave or convex shape before the metal bonding. Run-out between the first contacts and the second contacts is compensated through temperature-induced changes in a curvature of the bonded structure during the metal bonding.
