Optical converter system for (W)LEDs

An opto-electronic component, comprising:

• a housing;
• at least one converter module of an array comprising:
• at least one inorganic converter for the conversion of at least one of radiation and at least one optical component having an inorganic material, which is placed downstream relative to the converter in an emission direction, wherein the at least one inorganic converter comprises an inorganic matrix material in which luminous substances are embedded, and wherein the converter and the optical component are joined together in a cohesive manner by heating the inorganic converter and the optical component;
• and
• at least one opto-electronic functional element configured for at least one of emitting radiation and receiving radiation disposed in the housing.

A method for producing a plurality of converter modules for converting radiation associated with respective opto-electronic functional elements, comprising:

• providing a plurality of converters for converting at least one of radiation emitted from and radiation received by the respective opto-electronic functional elements;
• providing a plurality of optical components, wherein the plurality of converters and the plurality of optical components are arranged in an array;
• and
• joining the plurality of converters with respective optical components by heating at least one of the converters and the optical components so that the plurality of converters and the respective optical components will adhere to one another and form a cohesive composite to form an array with a plurality of converter modules.
