Abstract
An optoelectronic component with a semiconductor body includes an active region suitable for generating radiation, and two electrical contacts arranged on the semiconductor body. The contacts are electrically connected to the active region. The contacts each have a connecting face that faces away from the semiconductor body. The contact faces are located on a connection side of the component and a side of the component that is different from the connection side is mirror-coated. A method for the manufacture of multiple components of this sort is also disclosed.

An optoelectronic component comprising:
- a semiconductor body that comprises an active region suitable for generating radiation, and
- two electrical contacts arranged on the semiconductor body, wherein the contacts are electrically conductively connected to the active region and the contacts each have a connecting face that faces away from the semiconductor body, the connecting faces both being located on a connection side of the component,
- wherein a side of the component that is different from the connection side is coated with a mirror coating,
- wherein the component is configured as a laterally emitting component, and
- wherein an output face of the component comprises raised areas and depressions and runs transversally to the active region.
A method for the manufacture of a plurality of optoelectronic components, the method comprising:
- providing a composite element with a carrier layer and a plurality of semiconductor bodies arranged on the carrier layer, each semiconductor body comprising an active region suitable for the generation of radiation;
- applying a mirror layer to the composite element;
- and
- singularizing the composite element into the plurality of optoelectronic components, each optoelectronic component comprising:
- a semiconductor body of the plurality of semiconductor bodies, and
- two electrical contacts arranged on the semiconductor body, wherein the contacts are electrically conductively connected to the active region and the contacts each have a connecting face that faces away from the semiconductor body, the connecting faces being located on a connection side of the optoelectronic component, wherein a side of the component that is different from the connection side is coated with the mirror coating, wherein the component is configured as a laterally emitting component, and wherein an output face of the component comprises raised areas and depressions and runs transversally to the active region.
