- a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method (PE-CVD) can be used in various embodiments.
- PE-CVD plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method
- a plasma is generated around, wherein the volume is at least two gaseous
- dielectric layer compared to a plasmaless CVD method can be lowered. This can be an advantage, for example, if the element, for example, the light to be emitted
- the electronic component would be damaged at a temperature above a maximum temperature. Furthermore, it can be provided to measure the optical transparency of the structure having the electrically active region after forming the electrically active region and before the covering is formed. Depending on the measured optical transparency, then a desired optical target transparency of the electrically active region
