Abstract

Various embodiments relate to a method for producing an optoelectronic component includes applying a planarization medium to a surface of a substrate, wherein the planarization medium comprises a material which absorbs electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm, applying a first electrode on or above the material, forming an organic functional layer structure on or above the first electrode, and forming a second electrode on or above the organic functional layer structure.

Claims (39)

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

applying a planarization medium to a surface of a substrate, wherein the planarization medium comprises a material which absorbs electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm;

applying a first electrode on or above the material;

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

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

2 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the planarization medium is applied with a thickness such that a percentage of the light is absorbed in a range of approximately 85% to approximately 99%.

3 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the material which absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm is admixed with a carrier material, such that the planarization medium is formed; and

wherein, after admixing the material, the planarization medium is applied to the surface of the substrate.

4 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the planarization medium is applied to the surface of the substrate by means of one of: spin coating, blade coating, printing, spraying, spreading, rolling, drawing, wiping, dipping, flooding, or slot casting.

5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the planarization medium is a liquid; and

wherein, after applying the planarization medium, the planarization medium is cured.

6 . The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein curing comprises at least one of:

outdiffusion of a solvent contained in the planarization medium;

irradiation of the planarization medium with electromagnetic radiation; and/or

heating of the planarization medium; and/or

polymerization by air moisture; and/or

reaction of two constituents of the planarization medium.

7 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the material is designed in such a way that it absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 400 nm.

8 . An optoelectronic component, comprising:

a substrate;

a planarization medium applied on a surface of the substrate, wherein the planarization medium comprises a material which absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm;

a first electrode on or above the material;

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

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

9 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the planarization medium and/or the material have/has a thickness such that a percentage of the light is absorbed in a range of approximately 85% to approximately 99%.

10 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the material which absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm is embedded in a matrix material.

11 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the planarization medium comprises a polymer to which the material which absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 600 nm is bonded as molecule radical.

12 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the material is designed in such a way that it absorbs radiation having wavelengths of a maximum of 400 nm.

13 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the optoelectronic component comprises a light-emitting component and/or a solar cell.

14 . The optoelectronic component as claimed in claim 8 ,

wherein the planarization medium has a roughness of a maximum of 0.25 μm.
