  • Publication number: 20170084859
    Abstract: An optoelectronic component may include a carrier, above which a first electrode is formed. An optically functional layer structure is formed above the first electrode. A second electrode is formed above the optically functional layer structure, the second electrode extending areally over at least one part of the side of the optically functional layer structure which faces away from the carrier. An encapsulation is formed above the first and/or second electrode, the encapsulation encapsulating the optically functional layer structure.

  • Publication number: 20170018730
    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, an organic optoelectronic component, which is preferably an organic light emitting diode, includes a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer and an organic layer sequence situated between the electrode layers. Furthermore, the component includes a light-transmissive current confinement layer, which is fitted over the whole area between the first electrode layer and the organic layer sequence, such that the organic layer sequence is spaced apart from the first electrode layer. The current confinement layer is produced continuously from a common starting material and is structured by treatment and/or by action of temperature into at least one conductive region having a high electrical conductivity and into at least one insulating region having a low electrical conductivity. These electrical conductivities differ from one another by at least a factor of 10.
