ABSTRACT:
A light emitting diode (LED) may be disclosed. The LED may include a light-emitting side. The LED may also include a first electrode disposed on the light-emitting side. The LED may also include a second electrode. The LED may also include a semiconductor element disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The LED may also include a metal support element disposed between the semiconductor element and the second electrode. The metal support element may be configured to provide structural support for the LED.
