Millimeter-wave scanning near-field microscope using a resonant waveguide probe
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate a millimeter-wave surface imaging technique using a near-field scanning millimeter-wave microscope with a resonant standard waveguide probe. The metallic probe tip in the resonant waveguide was designed to couple energy into and out of the resonant waveguide. By measuring the shift of the resonant frequency and the change of the quality factor in the near-field zone, we obtained millimeter-wave near-field images of YBa2Cu3Oy thin films on MgO substrates with a spatial resolution better than 2 mm. © 2001 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1409944#

Scanning Near-Field Millimeter-Wave Microscopy Using a Metal Slit as a Scanning Probe
In this paper, a novel type of scanning near-field millimeter-wave microscopy using a metal slit-type probe is proposed. A tapered reduced-height rectangular waveguide forms the slit aperture, which has a width much smaller than one wavelength and length of the order of . The slit probe can be operated in theTE10 mode and, thus, results in high transmission efficiency, even when the width is ex...
متن کاملEffects produced by metal-coated near-field probes on the performance of silicon waveguides and resonators.
We study the effects of metal-coated fiber near-field probes on the performance of nanophotonic devices. Employing a heterodyne near-field scanning optical microscope and analyzing transmission characteristics, we find that a metal-coated probe can typically introduce a 3 dB intensity loss and a 0.2 rad phase shift during characterization of a straight waveguide made in a silicon-on-insulator s...

متن کاملAn overview of scanning near-field optical microscopy in characterization of nano-materials
Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy (SNOM) is a member of scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) family which enables nanostructure investigation of the surfaces on a wide range of materials. In fact, SNOM combines the SPM technology to the optical microscopy and in this way provide a powerful tool to study nano-structures with very high spatial resolution. In this paper, a qualified overview of ...
