1. A light-emitting panel comprising:

  • a first substrate;

    a second substrate opposed to the first substrate;

    a plurality of sockets, wherein each socket of the plurality of sockets comprises a cavity and wherein the cavity is patterned on the first substrate so as to be formed in the first substrate;

    a plurality of micro-components, wherein at least two micro-components of the plurality of micro-components are at least partially disposed in each socket; and

    a plurality of electrodes that are electrically but not physically in contact with the plurality of micro-components, wherein at least two electrodes of the plurality of electrodes are adhered to only the first substrate, only the second substrate, or at least one electrode of the at least two electrodes is adhered to each of the first substrate and the second substrate and wherein the at least two electrodes are arranged so that voltage supplied to the at least two electrodes causes one or more micro-components to emit radiation.
