Abstract:
1. An optoelectronic component comprising: a lens comprising a single-pieced, optically homogeneous and transparent main body comprising a first major face, a second major face and at least one cavity arranged on the first major face and which is formed in a transparent main body, and a potting material arranged in the cavity and comprising at least one diffuser which scatters radiation of at least one wavelength range, and at least one light source comprising a semiconductor body with an active layer, wherein 1) the light source is arranged on a side of the first major face, 2) the light source is arranged outside the cavity of the main body, 3) the light source is arranged at a distance from the lens and from the potting material, 4) a lateral extent of the cavity is less than a lateral extent of the active layer from a top view onto a radiation exit side of the semiconductor body, 5) radiation emitted by the light source which enters the main body of the lens through the first major face is i) guided without scattering processes in the lens to the second major face and emerges from the lens at the second major face, and ii) in areas outside the cavity directly comes from the light source and does not pass through the potting material, and 6) radiation emitted by the light source which enters the potting material at the first major face is i) scattered in the potting material and is then guided in the main body to the second major face, where it emerges from the lens, and ii) in areas of the cavity directly comes from the light source and does not pass through the main body.
