Claim:
1. A method of manufacturing an optical module, the method comprising: providing a chip with an integrated optical element, wherein the optical element includes a first electrode and a second electrode, and wherein the chip has a first connection contact for the first electrode and a second connection contact for the second electrode, so that between the first and second connection contacts, an operating voltage for the optical element can be applied to emit and/or receive radiation through an optically active side; connecting the chip to a film, so that the film covers an entire surface of the optically active side of the chip, wherein the film is made of at least one of acrylate, polyarylate or polyurethane, wherein the film is transparent to radiation, which can be emitted or received by the optical element when the operating voltage is applied, at least in a region located above the optically active side; and contacting a first contact pad of the chip by means of the film arranged on a conductor track and containing the second connection contact of a further conductor track; wherein connecting the chip to the film comprises pressing the chip into the film so that the film covers an entire surface of a top side of the chip and edges of the chip.
