In order to shade the inhomogeneous edge region (503) of organic optoelectronic components (1, 1′), which region causes artefacts in the photosignal of the components, it is known practice, after the deposition of all the layers of a component, for an aperture mask to be adhesively bonded on the encapsulation of said component. The alignment of the aperture mask constitutes not only an additional work step, but also a considerable source of error. The invention overcomes these disadvantages by virtue of the fact that at least one radiation-repellent layer (3) which covers the edge region (503) of a photodetector (5) of the optoelectronic component (1, 1′), but not more than 30% of the selective area (502) thereof, is deposited, preferably by means of a coating method, directly onto a radiation incoupling layer (4) covering the entire sensitive area (501), such that the at least one radiation-repellent layer (3) is integrally bonded to the radiation incoupling layer (4).
An optoelectronic component (1, 1′), comprising a photodetector (5) having a sensitive area (501) which is formed of a selective area (502) and an edge region (503) surrounding the selective area (502), wherein the photodetector (5) comprises at least one photoactive layer (54) between two spaced-apart electrodes (51, 52), wherein the first electrode (51), which is arranged in front of the second electrode (52) in the illumination direction (100), is at least semi-transparent for electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths to be detected,
