Various embodiments may relate to a process for producing an optoelectronic component. In the process, a carrier is provided. A first electrode is formed upon the carrier. An optically functional layer structure is formed upon the first electrode. A second electrode is formed upon the optically functional layer structure. At least one of the two electrodes is formed by disposing electrically conductive nanowires on a surface on which the corresponding electrode is to be formed, and by heating the nanowires in such a way that they plastically deform.
