Anisotropic Generation and Detection of Surface Plasmon Polaritons Using Near-Field Apertured Probes
Most recent studies centered on light-matter interactions at the nanoscale rely on near-field microscopy. Despite this, few works have been reported to date regarding the anisotropic generation of surface plasmons polaritons on metallic surfaces.

Near-field scanning optical microscopy of photonic crystal nanocavities [PDF]
Near-field scanning optical microscopy was used to observe high-resolution images of confined modes and photonic bands of planar photonic crystal (PPC) nanocavities fabricated in active InGaAsP material. We have observed the smallest optical cavity modes,

Near-Field Microwave Microscopy for 3D Surface Assessment of Manufactured Structures
Using near-field scanning microwave microscopy as a contact and non-contacting investigative tool for 3D surface metrology with three differing measurement modes, it has been possible to analyse structures that may be difficult for existing metrology ...

Waveguide mode imaging and dispersion analysis with terahertz near-field microscopy [PDF]
Propagation of terahertz waves in hollow metallic waveguides depends on the waveguide mode. Near-field scanning probe terahertz microscopy is applied to identify the mode structure and composition in dielectric-lined hollow metallic waveguides.

Near-field scanning optical microscopy nanoprobes
Near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) is a powerful method for the optical imaging of surfaces with a resolution down to the nanometer scale. By focusing an external electromagnetic field to the subwavelength aperture or apex of a sharp tip, the ...

High-Resolution Near-Field Raman Microscopy of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]
We present near-field Raman spectroscopy and imaging of single isolated single-walled carbon nanotubes with a spatial resolution of ≈25 nm. The near-field origin of the image contrast is confirmed by the measured dependence of the Raman scattering ...
