A radiation-emitting device includes a substrate, at least one layer sequence arranged on the substrate and adapted to generate electromagnetic radiation, including at least one first electrode surface, at least one second electrode surface, and at least one functional layer between the first electrode surface and the second electrode surface, wherein the functional layer is adapted to generate electromagnetic radiation in a switched-on operating state, at least one transparency region transparent to at least one partial spectrum of electromagnetic radiation at least in a switched-off operating state, and at least one non-transparency region non-transparent to the partial spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, wherein the transparency region and the non-transparency region are arranged such that electromagnetic radiation from the partial spectrum can pass through the radiation-emitting device through the transparency region.
