Near-field scanning optical microscopy using polymethylmethacrylate optical fiber probes.
We report the first use of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) optical fiber-made probes for scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM). The sharp tips were prepared by chemical etching of the fibers in ethyl acetate, and the probes were prepared by proper gluing of sharpened fibers onto the tuning fork in the conditions of the double resonance (working frequency of a tuning fork coincides with th...
متن کاملGold nanocone near-field scanning optical microscopy probes.
Near-field scanning optical microscopy enables the simultaneous topographical and subdiffraction limited optical imaging of surfaces. A process is presented for the implementation of single individually engineered gold cones at the tips of atomic force microscopy cantilevers. These cantilevers act as novel high-performance optical near-field probes. In the fabrication, thin-film metallization, ...
متن کاملTime-resolved second harmonic generation near-field scanning optical microscopy.
Novel scanning probe microscopy (SPM) spectroscopic techniques are currently receiving much attention. The increasing number of spectroscopic techniques, when combined with the high spatial resolution that is attainable with SPM, makes it possible to probe a large range of material characteristics on the nanoscopic scale. The ability to probe samples on the nanoscale with femtosecond time resol...
متن کاملPolarization Properties in Apertureless-Type Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy
Polarization properties of apertureless-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (a-SNOM) were measured experimentally and were also analyzed using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation. Our study reveals that the polarization properties in the a-SNOM are maintained and the a-SNOM works as a wave plate expressed by a Jones matrix. The measured signals obtained by the lock-in dete...
متن کاملScanning near-field optical microscopy.
An average human eye can see details down to 0,07 mm in size. The ability to see smaller details of the matter is correlated with the development of the science and the comprehension of the nature. Today's science needs eyes for the nano-world. Examples are easily found in biology and medical sciences. There is a great need to determine shape, size, chemical composition, molecular structure and...
