A method including disposing a structural adhesive onto an elevated surface of a first chip that includes a cavity disposed below the elevated surface. The method includes contacting a carrier with the structural adhesive. The carrier includes a second chip that optically aligns with a lateral surface of the cavity. The method includes curing the structural adhesive so that the carrier and host chip are mechanically anchored. An apparatus includes a first chip including a cavity located between lateral walls of the first chip and a carrier mechanically anchored with the first chip at a top portion of the lateral walls. The carrier includes a second chip that optically aligns with the first chip at a side portion of one of the lateral walls. The first and second chips are free of contact at a bottom surface of the second chip and a bottom surface of the cavity.
