Abstract
A diode is provided having a plate-shaped semiconductor element that includes a first side and a second side, the first side being connected by a first connecting layer to a first metallic contact and the second side being connected by a second connecting layer to a second metallic contact, the first side having a diode element in a middle area and having a further diode element in an edge area of the first side, which has crystal defects as a result of a separating process of the plate-shaped semiconductor element, the first connecting layer only establishing an electrical contact to the diode element and not to the further diode element and, on the first side, the further diode element having an exposed contact, which may be electrically contacted by the first connecting layer.
