Abstract
An integrated circuit having an optical structure is provided. The integrated circuit includes a semiconductor substrate and a plurality of light guiding pattern layers. The light guiding pattern layers are located above the semiconductor substrate, and each of the light guiding pattern layers has a plurality of openings and a plurality of side wall portions corresponding to the openings. Each of the side wall portions surrounds the corresponding opening. A projection of one of the openings of one of the light guiding pattern layers on the semiconductor substrate at least partially overlaps a projection of one of the openings of the adjacent light guiding pattern layer on the semiconductor substrate, so as to form at least one light via hole and allow external light to be transferred to the semiconductor substrate through the light guiding pattern layers.
