Abstract
An optical voltage source and decoupling device is provided, wherein the optical voltage source has a number N of series-connected semiconductor diodes, each having a p-n junction, the semiconductor diodes are monolithically integrated and together form a first stack with an upper side and an underside, and the number N of the semiconductor diodes of the first stack is greater than or equal to two, the decoupling device has a further semiconductor diode. The further semiconductor diode has a pin junction and, the further semiconductor diode is anti-serially connected with the semiconductor diodes of the first stack. An underside of the further semiconductor diode is materially connected with the upper side of the first stack and the further semiconductor diode forms a total stack together with the first stack.
