  • Publication number: 20230223495
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the optoelectronic semiconductor chip comprises a semiconductor layer sequence with an active zone for generating a radiation. The semiconductor layer sequence is based on AlInGaP and/or on AlInGaAs. A metal mirror for the radiation is located on a rear side of the semiconductor layer sequence opposite a light extraction side. A protective metallization is applied directly to a side of the metal mirror facing away from the semiconductor layer sequence. An adhesion promoting layer is located directly on a side of the metal mirror facing the semiconductor layer sequence. The adhesion promoting layer is an encapsulation layer for the metal mirror, so that the metal mirror is encapsulated at least at one outer edge by the adhesion promoting layer together with the protective metallization.

  • Publication number: 20220231195
    Abstract: The invention relates to an optoelectronic semiconductor component, comprising a first semiconductor layer stack, which comprises a first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type and a second semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type. The optoelectronic semiconductor component additionally has a first contact element and a second contact element. The first semiconductor layer stack and the second semiconductor layer are arranged one above the other. The second semiconductor layer is electrically connected to the second contact element. A part of a first main surface of the first semiconductor layer stack adjoins the first contact element, and a part of the first main surface of the first semiconductor layer stack is structured such that both a plurality of protruding regions as well as connection regions are formed.

  • Publication number: 20210320223
    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, the optoelectronic semiconductor chip (100) comprises a semiconductor layer sequence (1) having an active layer (10), a doped current spreading layer (11) and an output coupling layer (12), which are arranged one above the other in this order. The active layer generates primary radiation during intended operation. The current spreading layer comprises a larger lateral electrical conductivity than the output coupling layer. The output coupling layer comprises output coupling structures (121) for coupling out radiation on an exit side (120) facing away from the active layer. The output coupling layer comprises a lower absorption coefficient for primary radiation than the current spreading layer.

  • Publication number: 20210005784
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the optoelectronic semiconductor chip (1) comprises a semiconductor layer sequence (2) with an active zone (23) for generating a radiation. The semiconductor layer sequence (2) is based on AlInGaP and/or on AlInGaAs. A metal mirror (3) for the radiation is located on a rear side (12) of the semiconductor layer sequence (2) opposite a light extraction side (10). A protective metallization (6) is applied directly to a side of the metal mirror (3) facing away from the semiconductor layer sequence (2). An adhesion promoting layer (7) is located directly on a side of the metal mirror (3) facing the semiconductor layer sequence (2). The adhesion promoting layer (7) is an encapsulation layer for the metal mirror (3), so that the metal mirror (3) is encapsulated at least at one outer edge by the adhesion promoting layer (7) together with the protective metallization (6).
