Abstract

We demonstrate a transferable blue light-emitting diode (LED) fabricated using a cost-effective approach. By means of solution-based electrochemical etching, an ultrathin free-standing membrane can be obtained from a commercial III-nitride LED wafer. The membrane, containing a full LED structure (in...
