Optoelectronic Semiconductor Device and Method for Forming an Optoelectronic Semiconductor Device

An optoelectronic semiconductor device comprising:

• a carrier having a main plane of extension;
• at least one semiconductor chip arranged on the carrier;
• a frame arranged on the carrier and surrounding the semiconductor chip in lateral directions which are parallel to the main plane of extension of the carrier;
• and
• a conversion layer covering the at least one semiconductor chip and the frame,
• wherein the at least one semiconductor chip extends further in a vertical direction than the frame, where the vertical direction is perpendicular to the main plane of extension of the carrier,
• wherein the semiconductor chip is configured to emit electromagnetic radiation, and
• wherein the frame and the semiconductor chip are spaced from each other in the lateral directions by a gap.
