Abstract: A light emitting device is manufactured by forming a light emitting structure upon a buffer layer formed on a substrate. The light emitting structure is then separated from the buffer layer and the substrate. A light-directing element such as a mirror or a lens is then attached to the light emitting structure using a bonding agent.
