  • Patent number: 8344263
    Abstract: A housing for an electromagnetic-radiation-emitting optoelectronic component. Exterior side faces of the housing are at least partly provided with a screening layer suitable for screening an electromagnetic radiation. A lateral emission of electromagnetic radiation from the housing, which is disadvantageous for many applications, is thereby intended to be avoided. An electromagnetic-radiation-emitting component having a housing of this type and a method for producing a corresponding housing or component are additionally described.
