Abstract
A semiconductor structure is provided. The semiconductor structure includes: a substrate having a cavity recessed from a top surface of the substrate toward a bottom surface of the substrate opposite to the top surface, wherein the cavity has a sidewall and a bottom surface, and the bottom surface of the cavity is substantially parallel to the top surface of the substrate; a light source structure in the cavity, and the light source structure emitting a light from a sidewall of the light source structure; and a diffractive optical element (DOE) over the top surface of the substrate; wherein the sidewall of the cavity is a sloped surface, so that when the light is incident on the sidewall, the sloped surface reflects the incident light to generate a reflected light toward the DOE. Associated semiconductor structure and manufacturing method are also disclosed.
