Abstract

A structure having an optical element thereon has a portion of the structure extending beyond a region having the optical element in at least one direction. The structure may include an active optical element, with the different dimensions of the substrates forming the structure allowing access for the electrical interconnections for the active optical elements. Different dicing techniques may be used to realize the uneven structures.
