A light-emitting device includes: a substrate; a light-emitting structure including first and second nitride-based semiconductor layers on the substrate and an active layer between the first and second nitride-based semiconductor layers; an insulating layer on a top surface of the light-emitting structure; a protrusion on the insulating layer, a top surface of the protrusion being larger than a bottom surface thereof, the protrusion having a trapezoidal cross-section; a transparent conductive layer covering a top surface of the light-emitting structure, a top surface of the insulating layer, and the top surface of the protrusion and having a constant thickness along the top surface of the light-emitting structure, the top surface of the insulating layer, and the top surface of the protrusion; and an electrode covering at least one of inclined surfaces of the protrusion on the transparent conductive layer.

A wafer temporary bonding method using silicon direct bonding (SDB) may include preparing a carrier wafer and a device wafer, adjusting roughness of a surface of the carrier wafer, and combining the carrier wafer and the device wafer using the SDB. Because the method uses SDB, instead of an adhesive layer, for a temporary bonding process, a module or process to generate and remove an adhesive is unnecessary. Also, a defect in a subsequent process, for example, a back-grinding process, due to irregularity of the adhesive may be prevented.

Microelectronic packages are fabricated by stacking integrated circuits upon one another. Each integrated circuit includes a semiconductor layer having microelectronic devices and a wiring layer on the semiconductor layer having wiring that selectively interconnects the microelectronic devices. After stacking, a via is formed that extends through at least two of the integrated circuits that are stacked upon one another. Then, the via is filled with conductive material that selectively electrically contacts the wiring. Related microelectronic packages are also described.
