  • Patent number: 10276748
    Abstract: Disclosed is a radiation-emitting semi-conductor chip (1) comprising an epitaxial semi-conductor layer sequence (3) which emits electromagnetic radiation in operation. The epitaxial semi-conductor layer sequence (3) is applied on a a transparent substrate (4), wherein the substrate (4) has a first main surface (8) facing the semi-conductor layer sequence (3), a second main surface (9) facing away from the semi-conductor layer sequence (3) and a first lateral flank (10) arranged between the first main surface (8) and the second main surface (9), and the lateral flank (10) has a decoupling structure which is formed in a targeted manner from separating tracks. Also disclosed is a method for producing the semi-conductor chip, and a component comprising such a semi-conductor chip.

  • Patent number: 10115869
    Abstract: The invention relates to an optoelectronic semiconductor chip (10) comprising a carrier (2) and a semiconductor body (1) having an active layer (13) provided for generating electromagnetic radiation. Said carrier (2) has a first main surface (2A) facing the semiconductor body, a second main surface (2B) facing away from the semiconductor body, and a sidewall (2C) arranged between the first main surface and the second main surface. The carrier (2) has a structured region (21, 22, 23, 2C) for enlarging the total surface area of the sidewall, wherein the structured region has singulation traces. The invention also relates to an optoelectronic component (100) comprising such a semiconductor chip and a method for producing a plurality of such semiconductor chips are specified.
