Abstract

A radiation-emitting component is specified with—a carrier which has a top surface a radiation-emitting semiconductor chip arranged on the top surface of the carrier and configured to generate primary electromagnetic radiation, a first reflector layer arranged above a top surface of the semiconductor chip, and a cover body arranged between the first reflector layer and the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip, wherein a side surface of the cover body is inclined to the top surface of the carrier. Furthermore, a method for producing such a radiation-emitting component is specified.

Claims (32)

1. A radiation-emitting component, comprising:

a carrier having a top surface,

a radiation-emitting semiconductor chip arranged on the top surface of the carrier and configured to generate primary electromagnetic radiation,

a first reflector layer arranged above a top surface of the semiconductor chip, and

a cover body arranged between the first reflector layer and the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip, wherein

the cover body is formed of a resin,

a side surface of the cover body is inclined to the top surface of the carrier,

the side surface of the cover body has traces of a sawing process or a laser process,

a cross-sectional area of the cover body tapers in lateral directions starting from the semiconductor chip to the first reflector layer;

a side surface of the first reflector layer is inclined to the top surface of the carrier; and

the side surface of the first reflector layer has the traces of the sawing process or the laser process.

2. The radiation-emitting component according to claim 1 ,

in which the side surface of the cover body is flat.

3. The radiation-emitting component according to claim 1 ,

in which a side surface of the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip is surrounded by a second reflector layer.

4. The radiation-emitting component according to claim 1 ,

in which the cover body contains phosphor particles that partially convert primary electromagnetic radiation into secondary electromagnetic radiation.

5. The radiation-emitting component according to claim 1 , which the top surface of the carrier and the side surface of the cover body facing the carrier have an angle of at most 60°.

6. A radiation-emitting component, comprising:

a carrier having a top surface,

a radiation-emitting semiconductor chip arranged on the top surface of the carrier and configured to generate primary electromagnetic radiation,

a first reflector layer arranged above a top surface of the semiconductor chip, and

a cover body arranged between the first reflector layer and the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip, wherein

the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip has a substrate on which a semiconductor body is epitaxially grown or applied,

the substrate is formed of sapphire,

the cover body is formed of a resin,

a side surface of the cover body is inclined to the top surface of the carrier,

the side surface of the cover body has traces of a sawing or a laser process,

a cross-sectional area of the cover body tapers in lateral directions starting from the semiconductor chip to the first reflector layer,

the first reflector layer completely covers the top surface of the radiation-emitting semiconductor chip;

a side surface of the first reflector layer is inclined to the top surface of the carrier, and

the side surface of the first reflector layer has the traces of the sawing process or the laser process.
