An optoelectronic semiconductor chip, the latter includes a carrier and a semiconductor layer sequence grown on the carrier. The semiconductor layer sequence is based on a nitride-compound semiconductor material and contains at least one active zone for generating electromagnetic radiation and at least one waveguide layer, which indirectly or directly adjoins the active zone. A waveguide being formed. In addition, the semiconductor layer sequence includes a p-cladding layer adjoining the waveguide layer on a p-doped side and/or an n-cladding layer on an n-doped side of the active zone. The waveguide layer indirectly or directly adjoins the cladding layer. An effective refractive index of a mode guided in the waveguide is in this case greater than a refractive index of the carrier. |
