OPTOELECTRONIC COMPONENT AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AN OPTOELECTRONIC COMPONENT
Abstract:
An optoelectronic component includes first and second semiconductor layers and an active layer that generates electromagnetic radiation, wherein the active layer is disposed between the first and second semiconductor layers, a recess in the first semiconductor layer, a front side provided for coupling out the electromagnetic radiation, a first electrical connection layer and a second electrical connection layer disposed on a rear side opposite the front side, wherein the first electrical connection layer is arranged at least partially in the recess, and a contact zone with a dopant of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type, wherein the contact zone adjoins the recess, and the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer are highly doped to prevent diffusion of the dopant from the contact zone into the first semiconductor layer and diffusion of the dopant from the contact zone into the second semiconductor layer.
