Research Summary

Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM), also known as Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy (SNOM), is a powerful imaging technique that enables nanoscale optical imaging and spectroscopy with resolution beyond the diffraction limit. NSOM utilizes a tiny near-field probe, typically a tapered optical fiber or a sharp metallic tip, which is brought into close proximity to the sample being studied. This tip acts as a nanoscale light source or detector, depending on the mode of operation. By raster scanning the probe over the sample surface, NSOM captures optical signal variations within a few nanometers of the probe, providing extremely high spatial resolution imaging. It can unveil details beyond the diffraction limit, allowing researchers to examine features such as individual molecules, nanoparticles, or surface plasmons. NSOM can also obtain information about local optical properties, including near-field intensity, polarization, and even chemical composition through spectroscopic techniques. With its ability to investigate optical phenomena on a nanoscale, NSOM has become an essential tool for nanophotonics, materials science, life sciences, and other fields where precise characterization and manipulation of light-matter interactions are required.
