Abstract
Embodiments generally relate to micro-device arrays. In some embodiments, an array comprises a substrate and a plurality of micro-devices. Each micro-device is suspended over a cavity in the substrate by at least one lateral hinge attached to a side post formed into the substrate. Each micro-device comprises a bonding layer; a metal contact; semiconductor device layers; and a buffer layer. The semiconductor device layers may comprise GaN-based LED layers; wherein the buffer layer comprises AlGaN; and wherein the substrate comprises (111) oriented Silicon. In other cases, the semiconductor device layers may comprise InGaAsP-based LED layers; wherein the buffer layer comprises InGaP; and wherein the substrate comprises GaAs.
