Abstract: In an embodiment a method for operating an optoelectronic semiconductor component includes providing the optoelectronic semiconductor component having an optoelectronic semiconductor chip and a casing comprising a matrix material, wherein the semiconductor chip is embedded into the casing, and wherein optically inactive particles have been introduced as crack nuclei into the matrix material of the casing, and operating the optoelectronic semiconductor component such that cavities form entirely within the casing for at least some of the crack nuclei.

Abstract: A component having a boundary element is disclosed. In an embodiment a component comprises a semiconductor chip, a housing and a reflective layer, wherein the housing has a shaped body and a base body, the shaped body laterally enclosing the base body at least in places and being different from the reflective layer. In a plan view, the base body has a free area which is uncovered by the shaped body. The free area or a bottom surface of a cavity comprises a mounting surface for the semiconductor chip, wherein the semiconductor chip is arranged on the mounting surface. The bottom surface or the free area is partially covered by the reflective layer, wherein the mounting surface is enclosed at least in regions by a boundary element which adjoins the reflective layer and is configured to prevent the semiconductor chip from being covered by the reflective layer.
