METHODS OF MANUFACTURING LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICES WITH METAL INLAYS AND BOTTOM CONTACTS

Light-emitting devices are described herein. A light-emitting device includes a hybridized device having a top surface and a bottom surface and a packaging substrate comprising a metal inlay in an opening in the packaging substrate and conductive vias. The metal inlay is thermally coupled to the bottom surface of the hybridized device. Conductive contacts are disposed on a bottom surface of the packaging substrate, each electrically coupled to one of the plurality of conductive vias. Conductive connectors electrically coupled between the top surface of the hybridized device and the top surface of the packaging substrate. Each of the conductive connectors is electrically coupled to a respective one of the conductive contacts on the bottom surface of the packaging substrate by a respective on of the conductive vias.
