Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for imaging surface area of a sample having a surface topography with the aid of confocal microscopy, such as confocal Raman and/or fluorescence microscopy. The apparatus comprises a surface topography sensor that provides values for the surface topography. The surface topography values allow for the surface to be maintained in the confocal plane during scanning.

Abstract: An optoelectronic component has an Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 or Si substrate having a surface on which a buried CoSi.sub.2 layer is provided, a Si layer overlying the buried CoSi.sub.2 layer. A metal layer on a portion of this latter Si layer forms a diode between the metal layer, the underlying portion of the Si layer and the buried CoSi.sub.2 layer and a waveguide for a transparent portion of the metal layer delivers photon energy to the underlying portion of the Si layer.
