Near Field Scanning

The diffraction of visible light limits the spatial resolution in conventional optical microscopy to about 200-300 nm. In near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM), resolution is improved by bringing the light source, such as the end of an optical fiber, very close to the sample surface. Laser light coupled into the opposite end of the fiber propagates down the fiber core and is emitted from the aperture of the tip. When the sample is in the near-field(roughly within one tip diameter of the end of the tip), the spatial resolution is essentially equal to the diameter of the aperture at the end of the tip and is not determined by diffraction effects. Two-dimensional imaging is accomplished by raster-scanning the sample underneath the fiber tip and collecting transmitted or reflected light at a photodetector.
