US Patent 9362335 Display device and method for producing a display device

A display device with a semiconductor layer sequence includes an active region provided for generating radiation and a plurality of pixels. The display device also includes a carrier. The active region is arranged between a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer. The semiconductor layer sequence includes at least one recess, which extends from a major face of the semiconductor layer sequence facing the carrier through the active region into the first semiconductor layer and is provided for electrical contacting of the first semiconductor layer. The carrier includes a plurality of switches, which are each provided for controlling at least one pixel.
