Recent advances in Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technologies have shown the possibility of transmission enhancement of localized modes propagating through sub-diffraction wide slits and apertures, resulting in the strong near-field focusing of metallic planar nanostructures. This work presents a new approach to the fabrication of high-resolution near-field optical probes using 3D lithography in combination with numerical finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations. A narrow 500 nm depth of field focus area was observed both by numerical analysis and near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) measurements. Further research and optimization are planned in order to achieve subwavelength focal regions and increased signal intensities.

In this paper, output near fields of nanowires with different optical and structure configurations are calculated by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (3D FDTD) method. Then a nanowire with suitable near field distribution is chosen as the probe for scanning dielectric and metal nanogratings. Scanning results show that the resolution in near-field imaging of dielectric nanogratings can be as low as 80nm, and the imaging results are greatly influenced by the polarization direction of the incident light. Compared with dielectric nanogratings, metal nanogratings have significantly enhanced resolutions when the arrangement of gratings is perpendicular to the polarization direction of the incident light due to the enhancement effect of the localized surface plasmons (SPs). Results presented here could offer valuable references for practical applications in near-field imaging with nanowires as optical probes.

To study damage effectiveness of strong electro-magnetic pulse to components of equipments, the power density in area of MOS circuit, diodes and transistor of a computer is simulated, using the method of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD). Coupling laws in different areas are achieved, and then judging the damage efficiency of components. Electromagnetic pulse reflects constantly in computer box, causing power density appears oscillations. Energy gradually declines to zero, for it radiates outward from slots. Field concentration around PCB board results in dissociation of field strength, and slows down the attenuation of energy. Finally, formula of power density at random field strength and rise time is also obtained.
