Patent ID: 8304799

Claim:
An optoelectronic component with: a semiconductor chip, which is suitable for emitting primary electromagnetic radiation, a basic package body, which has a recess for receiving the semiconductor chip and electrical leads for the external electrical connection of the semiconductor chip, which are connected in an electrically conducting manner to electrical contacts of the semiconductor chip and have a terminal area which can be contacted from the outside, and a chip encapsulating element, which encloses the semiconductor chip in the recess, wherein: the basic package body is at least partly optically transmissive at least for part of the primary radiation and an optical axis of the semiconductor chip runs through the basic package body, such that a large part of the primary radiation emitted by the semiconductor chip is radiated into the basic package body, the basic package body comprises a luminescence conversion material, which is suitable for converting at least part of the primary radiation into secondary radiation with wavelengths that are at least partly changed in comparison with the primary radiation, and during the operation of the component, the basic package body emits radiation which comprises primary radiation passing through the basic package body and secondary radiation emitted by the luminescence conversion material.
