Abstract
A method and system for removing heat from an LED facilitates the fabrication of LEDs having enhanced brightness. A thermally conductive interposer can be attached to the top of the LED. Heat can flow through the top of the LED and into the interposer. The interposer can carry the heat away from the LED. Light can exit the LED though an at least partially transparent substrate of the LED. By removing heat from an LED, the use of more current through the LED is facilitated, thus resulting in a brighter LED.

A method for fabricating an LED assembly, the method comprising:
- providing an interposer;
- and
- attaching at least one LED device to the interposer via a top of the LED device(s).
A method for removing heat from an LED, the method comprising facilitating heat flow from the LED into a heat sink through a top of the LED.
