<p>A thin-film LED comprising an active layer (7) made of a nitride compound semiconductor, which emits electromagnetic radiation (19) in a main radiation direction (15). A current expansion layer (9) is disposed downstream of the active layer (7) in the main radiation direction (15) and is made of a first nitride compound semiconductor material. The radiation emitted in the main radiation direction (15) is coupled out through a main area (14), and a first contact layer (11, 12, 13) is arranged on the main area (14). The transverse conductivity of the current expansion layer (9) is increased by formation of a two-dimensional electron gas or hole gas. The two-dimensional electron gas or hole gas is advantageously formed by embedding at least one layer (10) made of a second nitride compound semiconductor material in the current expansion layer (9).</p> |
