Abstract: The invention relates to an optoelectronic component (100) comprising a semiconductor layer sequence (1) having an active layer (10), wherein the active layer (10) is designed to produce or absorb electromagnetic radiation in intended operation. Furthermore, the component (100) comprises a first contact structure (11) and a second structure (12), by means of which the semiconductor layer sequence (1) can be electrically contacted in intended operation. In operation, a voltage is applied to the contact structures (11, 12), wherein an operation-related voltage difference ΔUbet between the contact structures (11, 12) arises. When the voltage difference is increased, a first arc-over occurs in or on the component (100) between the two contact structures (11, 12). A spark gap (3) between the contact structures (11, 12), which arises in the event of the first arc-over, passes predominantly through a surrounding medium in the form of gas or vacuum and/or through a potting. The first arc-over occurs at a voltage difference of 2·ΔUbet at the earliest.
