Abstract:
A method of producing an optoelectronic component with a light-emitting laser chip and a lens-coupling optical element for a defined projection of an optical beam generated by the laser chip, the method which comprises:providing a semiconductor wafer with a metal structure;electrically contacting and mechanically securing a laser chip to the metal structure and orienting the laser chip with a beam path substantially parallel to the semiconductor wafer;positioning a lens-coupling optical element on the semiconductor wafer for deflecting the beam path of the laser chip;driving the laser chip;varying a spacing between the laser chip and the lens-coupling optical element and setting the spacing such that a deflected laser light leaving the lens-coupling optical element meets a predetermined beam condition with regard to a location of an optical image plane; andsecuring the lens-coupling optical element in the set position to the semiconductor wafer.
