Publication number: 20230378398Abstract: The invention relates to an LED package for UV light comprising an optoelectronic device which, in particular as a volume emitter, is designed to emit light in the ultraviolet spectrum during operation. The component is arranged on a carrier with two contact pads for electrical contacting. Furthermore, a frame surrounding the component and arranged on the carrier is provided with a gas-impermeable outlet region lying in a main radiation direction, so that a hermetically sealed cavity comprising an inner region of the carrier is formed, the side walls of the frame facing the optoelectronic device being bevelled and opening towards the main radiation direction. An ESD protection element arranged outside the inner area on the carrier is electrically connected to at least one of the two contact pads.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2021Publication date: November 23, 2023Inventors: Andreas REITH, Joerg SORG, Nikolaus GMEINWIESER, Dominik SCHOLZ, Manfred WOLF

Patent number: 11670745Abstract: A method for producing optoelectronic semiconductor components may include applying optoelectronic semiconductor chips for generating radiation to a carrier, producing a potting around the semiconductor chips with a potting top side facing away from the carrier such that the semiconductor chips remain free of a reflective potting material. The potting has trenches between the semiconductor chips, and the trenches are arranged at a distance from the semiconductor chips; the trenches do not touch the semiconductor chips. The method may further include filling the trenches with a supporting material to form at least one supporting body and leaving the potting alongside the trenches free of the supporting material.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2018Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Osram OLED GmbHInventors: Klaus Reingruber, Andreas Reith, Tobias Gebuhr
