Abstract
The disclosure relates to a system for providing an optical signal including an energy converter and a light source. The energy converter includes at least two materials and is designed as a magnetoelectric converter for the purpose of generating electrical energy on the basis of a magnetic alternating field. The light source is arranged on the energy converter and electrically conductively contacts a first surface of the energy converter functioning as an electrode. The light source is not electrically contacted with the energy converter via a cable connection.

A system for providing an optical signal comprising an energy converter and a light source,
- wherein the energy converter comprises at least two materials and is designed as a magnetoelectric converter for the purpose of generating electrical energy on the basis of a magnetic alternating field,
- wherein the light source is arranged on the energy converter and electrically conductively contacts a first surface of the energy converter functioning as an electrode, and
- wherein the light source is not electrically contacted with the energy converter via a cable connection.
A method for producing a system for providing an optical signal, comprising the following steps:
- a) providing an energy converter, wherein the energy converter comprises at least two materials and is designed as a magnetoelectric converter for the purpose of generating electrical energy on the basis of a magnetic alternating field, and
- b) applying a light source to the energy converter by vacuum-based coating technologies such that the light source electrically conductively contacts a first surface of the energy converter functioning as an electrode and such that the light source is not electrically contacted with the energy converter via a cable connection.
