Patent ID: 10559556

Abstract:
An optoelectronic semiconductor component is disclosed, comprising: a semiconductor body (1) having a semiconductor layer sequence (2) with a p-type semiconductor region (3), an n-type semiconductor region (5), and an active layer (4) arranged between the p-type semiconductor region (3) and the n-type semiconductor region (5); a support (10) having a plastic material and a first via (11) and a second via (12); a p-contact layer (7) and an n-contact layer (8), at least some regions of which are arranged between the support (10) and the semiconductor body (1), wherein the p-contact layer (7) connects the first via (11) to the p-type semiconductor region (3) and the n-contact layer (8, 8A) connects the second via (12) to the n-type semiconductor region (5); and an ESD protection element (15) which is arranged between the support (10) and the semiconductor body (1), wherein the ESD protection element (15) is electrically conductively connected to the first via (11) and to the second via (12), and wherein a forward direction of the ESD protection element (15) is anti-parallel to a forward direction of the semiconductor layer sequence (2).
