Then, a second substrate is provided and bonded to the first side of the first substrate. Then, a light-transmissible structure is formed on the second side of the first substrate at a location corresponding to the alignment mark. Afterwards, an optical structure is positioned on the second side of the first substrate by referring to the light-transmissible structure and the alignment mark.
