An optoelectronic component is provided. The optoelectronic component includes an electromagnetic radiation source including an optically active region designed for emitting a first electromagnetic radiation, and a converter structure, which includes at least one converter material and is arranged in the beam path of the first electromagnetic radiation. The at least one converter material is designed to convert at least one portion of the first electromagnetic radiation into at least one second electromagnetic radiation. The at least one second electromagnetic radiation has at least one different wavelength than the at least one portion of the first electromagnetic radiation. The converter structure is formed in a structured fashion in such a way that the converter structure has a predefined region, such that the at least one second electromagnetic radiation is emittable only from the predefined region. The predefined region has a smaller area than the optically active region.
