Abstract
A substrate for a light emitting diode (LED) can have one or more trenches formed therein so as to mitigate stress build up within the substrate due to mismatched thermal coefficients of expansion between the substrate and layers of material, e.g., semiconductor material, formed thereon. In this manner, the likelihood of damage to the substrate, such as cracking thereof, is substantially mitigated.
