Abstract

A method of producing an optoelectronic component includes providing a carrier having a carrier surface, a first lateral section of the carrier surface being raised relative to a second lateral section of the carrier surface; arranging an optoelectronic semiconductor chip having a first surface and a second surface on the carrier surface, wherein the first surface faces toward the carrier surface; and forming a molded body having an upper side facing toward the carrier surface and a lower side opposite the upper side, the semiconductor chip being at least partially embedded in the molded body.

Claims (30)

1. A method of producing an optoelectronic component comprising:

providing a carrier having a carrier surface, a first lateral section of the carrier surface being raised relative to a second lateral section of the carrier surface;

arranging an optoelectronic semiconductor chip having a first surface and a second surface on the carrier surface, wherein the first surface faces toward the carrier surface and the semiconductor chip is arranged on the first lateral section of the carrier surface;

forming a molded body having an upper side facing toward the carrier surface and a lower side opposite the upper side subsequent to arranging the optoelectronic semiconductor chip on the carrier surface, wherein the semiconductor chip is at least partially embedded in the molded body and a section of the upper side of the molded body is formed flush with the first surface of the semiconductor chip, and the lower side of the molded body is formed flush with the second surface of the semiconductor chip; and

separating the molded body from the carrier.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising arranging an adhesion layer on at least a part of the carrier surface, wherein the semiconductor chip is arranged on the adhesion layer.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising arranging a metallization on the lower side of the molded body.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second lateral section of the carrier surface annularly encloses the first lateral section.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a raised lateral section and a depressed lateral section are formed on the upper side of the molded body, and an optical lens is arranged over the depressed lateral section of the molded body in a further step.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the molded body is formed from an optically white material.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the upper side of the molded body is coated at least in sections with an optically reflective material.

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a multiplicity of semiconductor chips are arranged on the carrier surface, and the molded body is divided up in a further step.

9. A method of producing an optoelectronic component comprising:

providing a carrier having a carrier surface, a first lateral section of the carrier surface being raised relative to a second lateral section of the carrier surface;

arranging an optoelectronic semiconductor chip having a first surface and a second surface on the carrier surface, wherein the first surface faces toward the carrier surface and the semiconductor chip is arranged on the first lateral section of the carrier surface;

forming a molded body having an upper side facing toward the carrier surface and a lower side opposite the upper side, wherein the semiconductor chip is at least partially embedded in the molded body and a section of the upper side of the molded body is formed flush with the first surface of the semiconductor chip; and

separating the molded body from the carrier, wherein a part of the molded body is removed after formation of the molded body.

10. A method of producing an optoelectronic component comprising:

providing a carrier having a carrier surface, a first lateral section of the carrier surface being raised relative to a second lateral section of the carrier surface;

arranging an optoelectronic semiconductor chip having a first surface and a second surface on the carrier surface, wherein the first surface faces toward the carrier surface and the semiconductor chip is arranged on the first lateral section of the carrier surface;
