Abstract

In various aspects, an organic optoelectronic component and method for producing an organic optoelectronic component are described. An organic optoelectronic component may include a first electrode, an organic functional layer structure above the first electrode, a second electrode above the organic functional layer structure, an adhesive layer structure, and a protective film. The adhesive layer structure may contain a first adhesive layer above the first adhesive layer, and a second adhesive layer above the first adhesive layer. The first adhesive layer may be cured. The second adhesive layer may be adherent and elastic. The protective film may be above the second adhesive layer. The protective film may contain at least one region that is at least partly separated in a lateral direction.
