Abstract
An optoelectronic component includes a stacked arrangement including a photonic crystal and a gain medium. The gain medium includes a layer sequence composed of two quantum wells and at least one tunnel diode and is set up to emit an electromagnetic wave. The photonic crystal is electromagnetically coupled to the gain medium. The stacked arrangement is disposed on a substrate. Alternatively or additionally, the gain medium includes at least one quantum well. The photonic crystal is structured in a dielectric layer and electromagnetically coupled to the gain medium.
