Abstract: The waveguide comprises a transparent body (13) having a very sharp point at one end and being coated with a first opaque layer (14) such as metal. Said opaque layer (14) carries a layer (15) of an optically transparent material which, in turn, is covered by a second opaque layer (16). The apex of the point is removed so as to expose said transparent body (13) in a first aperture (18) and to expose said transparent layer (15) in a second aperture 17, said first aperture occupying an area below 0,01µm 2 .Light entering the transparent body (13) from its remote end is shone onto an object (4), the reflected light enters said second aperture (17) and is guided to a light detector (19) for further processing.

Abstract: Integrated semiconductor structure with optically coupled laser diode (11) and photodiode (12A), both devices having etched, vertical facets (16A, 21). The photodiode has a spatially non-uniform sensitivity profile with respect to the incident light beam (18A) emitted by the laser. This is due to the varying distance from the laser facet and/or to variations in the angle of incidence and results in photocurrents produced by the photodiode that depend on the intensity distribution of the light beam. The spatially non-uniform sensitivity profile allows the measurement of the far-field intensity distribution of the laser and thus on-wafer screening of lasers with respect to their mode-stability.
