Abstract

A method for producing an optoelectronic component includes forming an organic functional layer structure on or above a first electrode layer, and forming a second electrode layer on or above the organic functional layer structure, wherein a local modification structure is formed in the first electrode layer or in the second electrode layer.

Claims (38)

1 . A method for producing an optoelectronic component, wherein the method comprises:

forming an organic functional layer structure on or above a first electrode layer; and

forming a second electrode layer on or above the organic functional layer structure;

wherein a local modification structure is formed in the first electrode layer or in the second electrode layer.

2 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein at at least one predefined position the local modification structure is formed by means of locally heating the material of the respective layer.

3 . The method as claimed in claim 2 ,

wherein the local heating of the material of the respective layer is effected using a laser, preferably in such a way that a laser internal engraving of the respective layer is carried out.

4 . (canceled)

5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , furthermore comprising:

forming a first electrode layer on or above a substrate;

and forming a cover layer on or above the second electrode layer;

wherein preferably a local modification structure is formed in the substrate and in the cover layer.

6 . The method as claimed in claim 5 , furthermore comprising:

forming an optically translucent intermediate layer on or above the substrate, wherein the first electrode layer is formed on or above the optically translucent intermediate layer; and forming an encapsulation layer on or above the second electrode layer;

wherein preferably a local modification structure is formed in the optically translucent intermediate layer and in the encapsulation layer.

7 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein that layer in which a local modification structure is formed is formed with a layer thickness of at least 1 μm.

8 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the local modification structure is formed with a size in the sub-micrometer range; or

wherein the local modification structure is formed with a size of at least one micrometer.

9 . An optoelectronic component, comprising:

a first electrode layer;

an organic functional layer structure on or above the first electrode layer; and

a second electrode layer on or above the organic functional layer structure;

wherein a local modification structure is formed in the first electrode layer or in the second electrode layer.

10 . (canceled)

11 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 9 ,

furthermore comprising a substrate, wherein the first electrode layer is arranged on or above the substrate; and a cover layer on or above the second electrode layer;

wherein preferably a local modification structure is formed in the substrate and in the cover layer.

12 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 9 , furthermore comprising:

an optically translucent intermediate layer on or above the substrate, wherein the first electrode layer is arranged on or above the optically translucent intermediate layer; and an encapsulation layer on or above the second electrode layer;

wherein preferably a local modification structure is formed in the optically translucent intermediate layer and in the encapsulation layer.

13 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 9 ,

wherein that layer which has a local modification structure has a layer thickness of at least 1 μm.

14 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 9 ,

wherein the local modification structure has a size in the sub-micrometer range; or

wherein the local modification structure has a size of at least one micrometer.
