Abstract

An organic light-emitting diode is disclosed. In an embodiment, the diode includes a first light-emitting segment and at least a second light-emitting segment, wherein the first and second light-emitting segments include a common first electrode and a common second electrode, and are configured to emit radiation with different brightnesses, wherein the first electrode includes at least one separating line that does not completely cut through the first electrode, wherein an electric conductivity of the first electrode is reduced in a region of the separating line, wherein the separating line separates the first light-emitting segment from the second light-emitting segment, and wherein the second light-emitting segment has a lower brightness during operation than the first light-emitting segment.
