SEMICONDUCTOR COMPONENT FOR THE EMISSION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION AND METHOD FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

According to the invention, a semiconductor component is produced for the emission of electromagnetic radiation, in particular, light, which is characterised by comprising an active layer for production of radiation, a p contact, electrically connected to the active layer, an n contact, electrically connected to the active layer and a current limiting structure for the definition of a current path, whereby the current limiting structure is provided between the n contact and the active layer.
