Patent ID: 8531668

Claim:
A method for the binning of a radiation-emitting, optoelectronic semiconductor component, comprising the steps of: providing a radiation-emitting, optoelectronic semiconductor component; determining a color locus of a light emitted by the radiation-emitting, optoelectronic semiconductor component during operation; and classifying the radiation-emitting, optoelectronic semiconductor component into a predefined color locus range comprising the color locus determined, wherein the predefined color locus range is selected from a group of color locus ranges and at least one of the color locus ranges from the group of color locus ranges comprises a blue color locus, wherein at least one of the color locus ranges from the group of color locus ranges is intersected by an extended Planck curve or adjoins the extended Planck curve which continues the Planck curve at its high-temperature end point and together with the Planck curve forms a composite curve.
