Abstract

A semiconductor light source with low photon absorption is not only structurally simple, but is also easy to produce. The light source is formed of a layer stack with a total thickness of 50 .mu.m which is secured at a separate carrier body and connected to contacts of the carrier body with this thickness alone i.e. without intimate connection to a substrate, by a separate connecting structure. The diode is advantageous for realizing IREDs and LEDs of high optical performance.
