Optoelectronic device with an organic active layer

Abstract

Optoelectronic device comprising an organic active layer provided for generating electromagnetic radiation, and first and second electrodes contacting the active layer. The second electrode has a second electrode layer. The first electrode comprises a first electrode layer and a first connection layer spaced at least in places from the first electrode layer, with the active layer being arranged at least in places therebetween, and through vias extend through the active layer and form an electrical contact between the first electrode layer and the first connection layer. The through vias form a contiguous through via structure that subdivides the second electrode layer into a plurality of sub-regions which are spaced from one another and wherein the contiguous through via structure subdivides the active layer into a plurality of regions which are separate from one another. In operation, the through vias are electrically conductively connected to one another directly.
