The first platform has multiple holes to form a photonic crystal structure. The insulating layer is over an upper surface and a sidewall surface of the first platform, and over an upper surface of the second platform. The sidewall surface passes through the contact layer, the second waveguiding layer, and the active layer. The light-transmissive conducting layer connects to the photonic crystal structure through an aperture of the insulating layer. The first electrode has an opening corresponding to the aperture. The second electrode is under the substrate.
