PHOTOSENSITIVE ELEMENT AND OPTOELECTRONIC COMPONENT

The present disclosure relates to a photosensitive element and to an optoelectronic component comprising at least one such photosensitive element. The photosensitive element (100, 200) comprises a semiconductor substrate (102, 202), at least one light sensitive region (108, 208) formed in the semiconductor substrate (102, 202), an inactive region at least partly surrounding the light sensitive region (108, 208), and a protective layer (116, 216) with an opening leaving the light sensitive region (108, 208) uncovered by the protective layer (116, 216), wherein the protective layer (116, 216) comprises an anti-reflective coating, which has in at least a part of a spectral range between 300 nm and 1200 nm a reflectivity of less than 10 % and a transmittance of less than 0.1 %.
