Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an integrated circuit with an active transistor area and a plurality of wiring layers arranged above the active transistor area. At least one optical device is integrated in the active transistor area. The optical device is electrically connected with at least one of the wiring layers. At least one optical tunnel extends from the at least one optical device through the plurality of wiring layers to a surface of an uppermost wiring layer of the plurality of wiring layers facing away from the active transistor area.
