Abstract

A component with a semiconductor body, a first metal layer and a second metal layer is disclosed. The first metal layer is arranged between the semiconductor body and the second metal layer. The semiconductor body has a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer, and an active layer. The component has a plated-through hole, which extends through the second semiconductor layer and the active layer for the electrical contacting of the first semiconductor layer. The second metal layer has a first subregion, and a second subregion, spaced apart laterally from the first subregion by an intermediate space. The first subregion is electrically connected to the plated-through hole and is assigned to a first electrical polarity of the component. In plan view, the first metal layer laterally completely bridges the intermediate space and is assigned to a second electrical polarity of the component which differs from the first electrical polarity.
