Abstract
A component for detecting UV radiation and a method for producing a component are disclosed. In an embodiment a component includes a semiconductor body including a first semiconductor layer, a second semiconductor layer and an intermediate active layer located therebetween, wherein the semiconductor body is based on AlGaInN with 0≤n≤1, 0≤m≤1 and n+m<1, wherein the first semiconductor layer is n-doped, wherein the second semiconductor layer is p-doped, wherein the active layer is formed with respect to its material composition in such a way that during operation of the component, arriving ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the active layer for generating charge carrier pairs, wherein the active layer is relaxed with respect to its lattice constant, and wherein the first semiconductor layer is strained with respect to its lattice constant.
