  • OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICE
    Publication number: 20260123122
    Abstract: The invention relates to an optoelectronic device comprising a carrier with a front face and a rear face. First metal structures are arranged on the front face of the carrier. An optoelectronic semiconductor chip arranged on the front face of the carrier is electrically contacted via the first metal structures. The first metal structures are at least partially covered by a first dielectric. A second dielectric forms an outer surface of the optoelectronic device which is intended to be touched by a user. The second dielectric has a higher permittivity than the first dielectric. The carrier has second metal structures which are intended to detect a change in capacitance resulting from the user touching the optoelectronic device.

  • OPERATING ELEMENT AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20250204137
    Abstract: An operating element includes a carrier element, a luminous foil in or on which at least one optoelectronic component for generating light along a first main radiation direction and contact lines connected thereto are arranged, a diffuser layer arranged after the at least one optoelectronic component with respect to the first main radiation direction, a structured symbol element which is not arranged in front of the diffuser layer with respect to the first main radiation direction and configured to image at least one symbol along the first main radiation direction in a top view onto the diffuser layer and during operation of the at least one optoelectronic component, a touch-sensitive sensor configured to detect an exerted touch or pressure and to generate an electrical signal, and at least one reflective layer configured to reflect light scattered in the opposite direction to the main radiation direction in the main radiation direction.

  • OPTOELECTRONIC LIGHTING DEVICE AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20250169254
    Abstract: An optoelectronic lighting device includes a first at least partially transparent embedding layer and at least one at least partially transparent carrier substrate arranged on the first embedding layer, on whose side facing the first embedding layer a structured electrically conductive layer and at least one optoelectronic semiconductor component are arranged. The first embedding layer embeds the structured electrically conductive layer and the optoelectronic semiconductor component. The optoelectronic semiconductor component is configured to emit light at least along a main emission direction through a top surface of the optoelectronic semiconductor component and in a direction opposite to the main emission direction through a bottom surface of the optoelectronic semiconductor component. A substantially opaque region is provided below the optoelectronic semiconductor component, as viewed in the direction opposite to the main emission direction.
