Abstract

An optoelectronic semiconductor body includes a substrate with a front side for emitting electromagnetic radiation. The optoelectronic semiconductor body has a semiconductor layer sequence that is arranged on a rear side of the substrate and has an active layer suitable for generating the electromagnetic radiation. The optoelectronic semiconductor body also includes first and second electrical connection layers that are arranged on a first surface of the semiconductor body that faces away from the substrate.
