Abstract

In some embodiments, a substrate carrier for holding a plurality of substrates comprises a disk formed of a continuous material to a nominal dimension which is approximately a multiple of a nominal dimension of a standard substrate size used in the manufacture of light emitting diode devices. In an embodiment, the disk is formed symmetrically about a central axis and defines a substantially planar upper surface. A first pair of pockets is defined in the upper surface of the disk, wherein the disk and each of the first pair of pockets are bisected by a first reference plane passing through the central axis. A second pair of pockets is defined in the upper surface of the disk, wherein the disk and each of the second pair of pockets are bisected by a second reference plane passing through the central axis.
