Abstract: A method for forming a laser diode structure. The method includes providing a laser diode material having a surface region. A multilayer dielectric mask structure comprising alternating first and second dielectric layers is formed overlying the surface region. The method forms a laser diode structure using the multilayer dielectric mask structure as a mask. The method selectively removes a portion of the first dielectric layer to form one or more undercut regions between the second dielectric layers. A passivation layer overlies the multilayer dielectric mask structure and the undercut region remained intact. The dielectric mask structure is selectively removed, exposing a top surface region of the laser diode structure. A contact structure is formed overlying at least the exposed top surface region.
