Abstract
The invention relates to an optoelectronic component and a method for producing it, in particular a waveguide structure, featuring at least one irradiation-sensitive structure in a layer structure of the optoelectronic component, the refractive index of the irradiation-sensitive structure being able to be permanently altered in a manner dependent on an irradiation. It is thus possible to change the properties of at least one layer, in particular of an optical waveguide, in a targeted manner by means of a simple method step.
