Abstract

A light emitting component is disclosed. In an embodiment a light-emitting device includes at least one active layer stack configured to generate light, a first electrode electrically contacting the at least one active layer stack, a second electrode electrically contacting the at least one active layer stack and at least one light-emitting face for emitting light. The device further includes a first contact structure electrically conductively connected to the first electrode and a second contact structure electrically conductively connected to the second electrode, wherein the first contact structure laterally surrounds a major part of the at least one light-emitting face and a major part of the second contact structure, and wherein the second contact structure laterally surrounds a major part of the at least one light-emitting face.
