Laser light source and method for producing a laser light source

1. A laser light source, comprising:

a semiconductor layer sequence having an active region and a radiation coupling out area having a first partial region and a second partial region different than the first partial region; and

a filter structure,

wherein

the active region generates, during operation, coherent first electromagnetic radiation having a first wavelength range and incoherent second electromagnetic radiation having a second wavelength range,

the coherent first electromagnetic radiation is emitted by the first partial region along an emission direction,

the incoherent second electromagnetic radiation is emitted by the first partial region and by the second partial region,

the second wavelength range comprises the first wavelength range,

the filter structure comprises a filter layer applied on the radiation coupling-out area on the first partial region and on the second partial region, and

the filter layer comprises a non-transparent material on the second partial region and a transparent oxide, nitride or oxynitride on the first partial region, the transparent oxide, nitride or oxynitride being an oxide, nitride or oxynitride of the non-transparent material.

2. The laser light source as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the filter layer is embodied as a pinhole diaphragm having an opening, and wherein the opening is arranged above the first partial region.

3. A method for producing a laser light source, comprising the steps of:
