Abstract

An optoelectronic component includes a housing including a base section and a cover section that delimit an interior of the housing, wherein an optoelectronic semiconductor chip is arranged on the base section, the cover section is formed by an optical element, and a reflective element including openings is arranged between the optoelectronic semiconductor chip and an outer side of the optical element.

Claims (31)

1. An optoelectronic component comprising a housing comprising a base section and a cover section that delimit an interior of the housing,

the cover section is formed by an optical element comprising a plurality of optical individual elements arranged alongside one another,

a reflective element comprising openings is arranged between the optoelectronic semiconductor chip and an outer side of the optical element,

an opening of the reflective element is assigned to each optical individual element of the optical element, and

each optical individual element comprises a focal point spaced apart from a center point of the assigned opening of the reflective element by not more than double the diameter of the opening by not more than the single diameter of the opening.

2. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the reflective element is configured such that it is specularly or diffusely reflective.

3. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 ,

wherein the optical element comprises a planar side facing the optoelectronic semiconductor chip, and

the reflective element is arranged on the planar side.

4. The optoelectronic component according to claim 3 , wherein the reflective element is laminated, printed or applied as a metallization on the planar side of the optical element.

5. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the reflective element is at least partly embedded into the optical element.

6. The optoelectronic component according to claim 5 ,

wherein the optical element comprises a plurality of cavities arranged between the optoelectronic semiconductor chip and the reflective element, and

a wavelength-converting material is respectively arranged in the cavities.

7. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the openings of the reflective element comprise a round or a rectangular cross section.

8. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the openings of the reflective element are arranged in a regular lattice arrangement, a rectangular lattice arrangement or a hexagonal lattice arrangement.

9. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the optical individual elements are configured as optical lenses.

10. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the optical individual elements are configured as optical tapers.

11. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the optical individual elements of the optical element differ from one another.

12. The optoelectronic component according to claim 1 , wherein a wavelength-converting material is arranged on a radiation emission face of the optoelectronic semiconductor chip and/or on side faces of the optoelectronic semiconductor chip perpendicular to the radiation emission face, and/or on the base section of the housing and/or on a side of the reflective element facing the optoelectronic semiconductor chip.
