A light source device and method of operating the light source device. The light source device comprising a support substrate, a plurality of light emitting etch structures placed in a matrix on the support substrate forming a plurality of rows and columns of the light emitting etch structures, a plurality of light waveguides positioned on the substrate such that each of the light emitting etch structures is associated with an electro-coupling region with respect to one of the plurality of light waveguides, a deflection mechanism for causing relative movement between a portion of at least one of the plurality of light waveguides and the associated light emitting etch structure so as to control when the light emitting etch structure is in the electro-coupling region, and a light source associated with each of the plurality of light waveguides for transmitting a light along the plurality of light waveguides for selectively activating each of the light emitting etch structures when positioned within the electro-coupling region.
