Claim:
1. An optoelectronic device comprising: a mounting substrate having a mounting surface; at least one optoelectronic substrate comprising: at least one optical fiber having a fiber endpiece; at least one reflective element for reflecting electromagnetic radiation entering or exiting the at least one optical fiber; and at least one glue droplet in a position fixed relative to the mounting surface of the mounting substrate, the at least one glue droplet being made of a glue material or of another adhesive material; wherein each optical fiber comprises at least one fiber portion contacting and/or being immersed in the at least one glue droplet, the fiber portion being arranged at a distance from the fiber endpiece of the optical fiber; wherein the fiber endpiece is secured to the coupling region of the at least one optoelectronic element such that the fiber endpiece is arranged at a mounting distance from the mounting surface being larger than a distance between a position of the coupling region of the optoelectronic substrate and the mounting surface; wherein the at least one optical fiber comprises a fiber section arranged between the first end piece and the fiber portion, and the fiber section comprises a bend; and wherein the mounting surface, with the exception of portions of the mounting surface underlying and supporting the at least one glue droplet and/or the at least one optoelectronic substrate, is exposed around the at least one optoelectronic substrate and/or the at least one glue droplet.
