Optoelectronic device and method of producing an optoelectronic device

An optoelectronic device comprising:

• a covering layer, a first electrode, a functional layer stack arranged between the covering layer and the first electrode and a plurality of spacers, wherein
• the functional layer stack has an organic active layer that generates electromagnetic radiation,
• the first electrode has conductor tracks with branching points,
• the spacers are each arranged on one of the branching points, and
• the functional layer stack is arranged in places between the covering layer and the spacers.

A method of producing an optoelectronic device comprising a covering layer, a first electrode with conductor tracks and branching points, a functional layer stack and a plurality of spacers, the method comprising:

• a) providing a carrier body;
• b) forming the first electrode on the carrier body;
• c) forming the spacers on the branching points;
• d) applying the layer stack both to the first electrode and the spacers;
• and
• e) applying the covering layer, wherein the functional layer stack is arranged in places between the covering layer and the spacers.
