Optoelectronic component with encapsulant
View Patent ↗Provided are optoelectronic components which include a substrate having a front surface, a back surface and a trench in the front surface, an optoelectronic device in the trench, and an encapsulant filling the trench frush to the front surface, wherein the encapsulant provides an optical surface.
1. An optoelectronic component, comprising a substrate having a front surface, a back surface and a trench in the front surface, an optoelectronic device in the trench, and an encapsulant filling the trench flush to the front surface, wherein the encapsulant provides an optical surface.
2. The optoelectronic component of claim 1 , wherein the optical surface is an optically flat surface.
3. The optoelectronic component of claim 1 , further comprising an optical element in the encapsulant.
4. The optoelectronic component of claim 3 , wherein the optical element is a slide, a filter, a polarizer, or a lens.
5. The optoelectronic component of claim 3 , wherein the optical element provides a focusing, reflecting or waveguiding function.
6. The optoelectronic component of claim 1 , wherein the substrate is formed from silicon.
7. An optoelectronic component, comprising a planar substrate having a front surface, a back surface and a trench in the front surface, an optoelectronic device in the trench, an encapsulant covering the optoelectronic device, and an optical element inserted into the encapsulant for focusing or reflecting light, or for altering the light transmission qualities of the optoelectronic component.
8. The optoelectronic component of claim 7 , wherein the optical element is a slide for altering the light transmission qualities of the encapsulant.
9. The optoelectronic component of claim 7 , wherein the substrate is formed from silicon.
