Claim 0:
1. An optoelectronic semiconductor device, comprising:
a first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type;
a second semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type;
a first contact element configured to contact the first semiconductor layer;
a second contact element configured to contact the second semiconductor layer;
a first current spreading layer electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer and to the first contact element and arranged between the first semiconductor layer and the first contact element; and
a second current spreading layer electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer and to the second contact element and arranged between the second semiconductor layer and the second contact element, the second current spreading layer horizontally extending along the first semiconductor layer and forming a carrier element;, wherein:
the first semiconductor layer is arranged on a side facing away from a first main surface of the second semiconductor layer;
the first current spreading layer is arranged on a side of the first main surface of the first semiconductor layer;
the second current spreading layer is arranged on a side of the first main surface of the first semiconductor layer;
electromagnetic radiation emitted by the optoelectronic semiconductor device is output via the first main surface of the second semiconductor layer;
the first contact element and the second contact element are each arranged on a side of a first main surface of the first semiconductor layer and have a height of more than 50 μm; and
the first contact element comprises a first section extending in a first direction, and a second section connected to the first section and extends in a second direction different from the first direction,
further comprising openings in the second current spreading layer, the first contact elements contacting the first current spreading layer through the openings.
