  • Publication number: 20230317900
    Abstract: A component may include a semiconductor body, an insulation structure, and a connection structure. The semiconductor body may have a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, and an active zone located therebetween. The connection structure may have a connection layer in direct electrical contact with the second semiconductor layer. The insulation structure may adjoin both the second semiconductor layer and the connection layer. The insulation structure may laterally surround and may partially cover the connection layer in top view. The connection structure may have through-contacts in electrical contact with the connection layer and along a vertical direction, which extend throughout the insulation structure. The component may have a back side formed as a mounting surface, which is structured and formed, at least in regions, by surfaces of the connection structure. The through-contacts may be formed as individual, one-piece contact columns or as integral parts of a continuous contact layer.

  • Publication number: 20220393058
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an optoelectronic semiconductor component includes a semiconductor layer sequence with a doped first layer, a doped second layer, an active zone configured to generate radiation by electroluminescence between the first layer and the second layer, and a side surface extending transversely to the active zone and delimiting the semiconductor layer sequence in a lateral direction, two electrodes for electrical contact between the first and second layers and a cover layer located on the side surface in a region of the first layer, wherein the cover layer is in direct contact with the first layer, wherein a material of the cover layer alone and its direct contact with the first layer are configured to cause a formation of a depletion zone in the first layer, wherein the depletion zone comprises a lower concentration of majority charge carriers compared to a rest of the first layer, wherein the cover layer comprises a metal or a metal compound, and wherein the cover layer forms a Schottky contact w

  • Publication number: 20210391506
    Abstract: An optoelectronic device includes an optoelectronic semiconductor chip having a first and a second semiconductor layer having a first and second conductivity type, respectively; a first and a second current spreading layer; a dielectric reflective layer; and a plurality of first electrical connecting elements. The first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer are stacked. The first current spreading layer and the second current spreading layer are arranged on a side of the first semiconductor layer facing away from the second semiconductor layer. The dielectric reflective layer is arranged between the first semiconductor layer and the first current spreading layer. The plurality of first electrical connecting elements extends through the dielectric reflective layer and is suitable to electrically connect the first semiconductor layer to the first current spreading layer. The second current spreading layer is electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer.
