Light-emitting devices, and related components, systems and methods are disclosed. 1a multi-layer stack comprising III-V semiconductor materials including a light-generating region and a first layer supported by the light-generating region,wherein a surface of the first layer is configured so that at least 45% of a total amount of light generated by the light-generating region emerges via the surface of the first layer, andwherein the first layer has an edge which is at least one millimeter long.. A light-emitting device, comprising: This application is continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/287,365, filed Nov. 2, 2011, which is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/944,815, filed Nov. 26, 2007, which is a continuation of and claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §120 to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/052,592, filed Feb. 7, 2005, which is a continuation of and claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §120 to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/724,029, filed Nov. 26, 2003, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to the following U.S. Provisional Patent Applications: 60/462,889, filed Apr. 15, 2003; 60/474,199, filed May 29, 2003; 60/475,682, filed Jun. 4, 2003; 60/503,653, filed Sep. 17, 2003; 60/503,654 filed Sep. 17, 2003; 60/503,661, filed Sep. 17, 2003; 60/503,671, filed Sep. 17, 2003; 60/503,672, filed Sep. 17, 2003; 60/513,807, filed Oct. 23, 2003; and 60/514,764, filed Oct. 27, 2003. Each of these applications is incorporated herein by reference.The invention relates to light-emitting devices, and related components, systems and methods.A light emitting diode (LED) often can provide light in a more efficient manner than an incandescent light source and/or a fluorescent light source. The relatively high power efficiency associated with LEDs has created an interest in using LEDs to displace conventional light sources in a variety of lighting applications. For example, in some instances LEDs are being used as traffic lights and to ...
