  • Patent number: 11462500
    Abstract: In one embodiment, an optoelectronic semiconductor device includes at least two lead frame parts and an optoelectronic semiconductor chip which is mounted in a mounting region on one of the lead frame parts. The lead frame parts are mechanically connected to one another via a casting body. The semiconductor chip is embedded in the cast body. In the mounting region the respective lead frame part has a reduced thickness. An electrical line is led over the cast body from the semiconductor chip to a connection region of the other of the lead frame parts. In the connection region, the respective lead frame part has the full thickness. From the connection region to the semiconductor chip the electrical line does not overcome any significant difference in height.

  • Publication number: 20220262988
    Abstract: An optoelectronic component includes a first semiconductor emitter and a second semiconductor emitter, each with an active region configured to generate electromagnetic radiation, and each with a front side coupling out area. The optoelectronic component also includes a radiation-impermeable cover layer and a carrier. The semiconductor emitters are on a first side of the carrier. The first semiconductor emitter is configured to emit electromagnetic radiation in a first wavelength range through its coupling out area. The second semiconductor emitter is configured to emit electromagnetic radiation in a second wavelength range through its coupling out area. The first and second wavelength ranges are different from each other. The cover layer is formed with a photopolymer, is arranged on the first side of the carrier, includes a coupling out window which completely penetrates the cover layer, and in which the coupling out areas are at least partially free of the cover layer.
