Abstract

In various embodiments, an organic optoelectronic component is provided. The organic optoelectronic component may include a first electrode, an organic functional layer structure over the first electrode, and a second electrode over the organic functional layer structure. Optionally, the organic functional layer structure includes a charge carrier pair generation layer structure. At least one of the electrodes and/or the charge carrier pair generation layer structure includes electrically conductive nanostructures, the surfaces of which are at least partially coated with a coating material.
