  • Patent number: 11837844
    Abstract: A method for singulating semiconductor components (20) is specified, said method comprising the steps of providing a carrier (21), applying at least two semiconductor chips (22) on the carrier (21), etching at least one break nucleus (23) at a side of the carrier (21) facing the semiconductor chips (22), and singulating at least two semiconductor components (20) by breaking the carrier (21) along the at least one break nucleus (23). The at least one break nucleus (23) extends at least in places in a vertical direction (z), the vertical direction (z) being perpendicular to a main extension plane of the carrier (21), and the at least one break nucleus (23) is arranged between the two semiconductor chips (22) in a lateral direction (x), the lateral direction (x) being parallel to the main extension plane of the carrier (21).

  • Patent number: 10520164
    Abstract: A device for converting the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation is disclosed. In an embodiment the device includes a carrier, a conversion layer configured to at least partly convert a wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation and an intermediate layer, wherein the conversion layer is connected to the carrier via the intermediate layer, and wherein the intermediate layer, at least in partial regions, includes a solid layer and a connection layer.
