Abstract
Solid state lighting (SSL) devices and methods are disclosed. A particular method includes forming an SSL formation structure having a CTE, selecting a first material of an interlayer structure to have a first material CTE greater than the substrate CTE, and selecting a second material based at least in part on the second material having a CTE less than the first material CTE. The intelayer structure is formed over the SSL formation structure e.g., with a first layer of the first material over the SSL formation structure, a portion of the second material over the first material, and a second layer of the first material over the second material. The CTE difference between the first and second materials can counteract a force placed on the formation structure by the first material. Particular formation structures can have an off-cut angle with a non-zero value of up to about 4.5 degrees.
