In some embodiments, laser devices having contact pads are formed. The laser diodes are formed from a doped semiconductive material. The contact pads and semiconductive material share an ohmic junction. Underbump metallurgies are formed on the contact pads. Conductive connectors are electrically coupled to the laser devices. The underbump metallurgies help prevent metal inter-diffusion between the contact pads and conductive connectors. As such, when reflowing the conductive connectors, the junction of the contact pads and semiconductive material may retain its ohmic properties.
