Abstract

The invention relates to a printed circuit board element (10) including at least one optoelectronic component (1) which is embedded in an optical, photopolymerizable layer material (13), and at least one optical waveguide (14) optically coupled thereto, which is structured in the optical, photopolymerizable material (13) by photon irradiation, wherein the component (1) comprises a curved deflection mirror (5) on its light transmission surface (3), which curved deflection mirror deflects the light radiation (15), for instance by 90°.
