Claim:
1. A solid-state transducer (SST) assembly comprising: an SST having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the SST having a transducer structure, a first contact and a second contact, wherein the first and second contacts are configured to be electrically accessible from the first side, wherein the first contact includes a first isolated portion covered by a dielectric material and a first exposed portion not covered by the dielectric material, and wherein the second contact includes a second isolated portion covered by the dielectric material and a second exposed portion not covered by the dielectric material; a conductive carrier substrate on the first side of the SST, the conductive carrier substrate having a first terminal electrically coupled to the first contact and a second terminal electrically coupled to the second contact; a first isolating via extending through the conductive carrier substrate to the dielectric material, the first isolating via surrounding the first exposed portion of the first contact and defining the first terminal; a second isolating via extending through the conductive carrier substrate to the dielectric material, the second isolating via surrounding the second exposed portion of the second contact and defining the second terminal; a separator positioned proximate to the transducer structure and projecting through the transducer structure toward the second side; and an optical element positioned on the second side, wherein the separator is positioned proximate to the optical element.
