Abstract: Light emitting device die having a mesa configuration on a substrate and an electrode on the mesa are attached to a submount in a flip-chip configuration by forming predefined pattern of conductive die attach material on at least one of the electrode and the submount and mounting the light emitting device die to the submount. The predefined pattern of conductive die attach material is selected so as to prevent the conductive die attach material from contacting regions of having opposite conductivity types when the light emitting device die is mounted to the submount. The predefined pattern of conductive die attach material may provide a volume of die attach material that is less than a volume defined by an area of the electrode and a distance between the electrode and the submount. Light emitting device dies having predefined patterns of conductive die attach material are also provided.

Abstract: Bonding of flip-chip mounted light emitting devices having an irregular configuration is provided. Light emitting diodes having a shaped substrate are bonded to a submount by applying forces to the substrate an a manner such that shear forces within the substrate do not exceed a failure threshold of the substrate. Bonding a light emitting diode to a submount may be provided by applying force to a surface of a substrate of the light emitting diode that is oblique to a direction of motion of the light emitting diode to thermosonically bond the light emitting diode to the submount. Collets for use in bonding shaped substrates to a submount and systems for bonding shaped substrates to a submount are also provided.
