Patent ID: 7382034

Claim:
An optoelectronic component for converting electromagnetic radiation into an intensity-dependent photocurrent comprising a substrate, especially one formed according to CMOS technology, with an integrated semiconductor structure and an optically active thin layer structure situated upstream in the direction of light incidence, the optically active thin layer comprising: a layer of a transparent conductive material and at least one layer of semiconductor material, which are arranged on an isolating layer, inside which isolating layer connection means are provided for establishing a connection between the optically active thin layer structure and the integrated semiconductor structure arranged on the substrate, wherein an arrangement of respective spatially adjacent image elements is formed in the horizontal plane of the component, each having individual contacts on the back, and whose front contacts are together formed by the layer of transparent, conductive material, wherein the layer of transparent, conductive material is connected with a potential tap arranged outside of the image element arrangement by a conductive structure additionally formed on the substrate, the conductive structure contacting the layer of transparent, conductive material and at least one of said connection means.
