Book Near Field Scanning Optical Microscope for Organic Photonic Materials

Download or read book Near Field Scanning Optical Microscope for Organic Photonic Materials written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this project, we requested funds from the Air Force of Scientific Research (AFOSR) under DOD's Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) to acquire a near-field scanning optical microscope (NSOM). Near-field scanning optical microscope (NSOM) is a unique research tool commercialized in the past two years, which provides unprecedented optical resolution defying the diffraction limit, as small as 1/20 laterally and 1/100 vertically. The funds from AFOSR has enabled us to purchase and install a state-of-the-art NSOM from TopoMetric. We have successfully installed and tested the instrument. A number of experiments have been performed using the instrument. The NSOM has proved to be a powerful instrument which allows innovative new approaches to address fundamental issues and enhance the existing and future DOD sponsored research projects in the University of Rochester. The preliminary application of the NSOM has already demonstrated the great potential of NSOM, its value to DOD sponsored research, and its usefulness for training future scientists and engineers for the DOD interests.

Book Atomic Force Microscopy Scanning Nearfield Optical Microscopy and Nanoscratching

Download or read book Atomic Force Microscopy Scanning Nearfield Optical Microscopy and Nanoscratching written by Gerd Kaupp and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-10-24 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making a clear distinction is made between nano- and micro-mechanical testing for physical reasons, this monograph describes the basics and applications of the supermicroscopies AFM and SNOM, and of the nanomechanical testing on rough and technical natural surfaces in the submicron range down to a lateral resolution of a few nm. New or improved instrumentation, new physical laws and unforeseen new applications in all branches of natural sciences (around physics, chemistry, mineralogy, materials science, biology and medicine) and nanotechnology are covered as well as the sources for pitfalls and errors. It outlines the handling of natural and technical samples in relation to those of flat standard samples and emphasizes new special features. Pitfalls and sources of errors are clearly demonstrated as well as their efficient remedy when going from molecularly flat to rough surfaces. The academic or industrial scientist learns how to apply the principles for tackling their scientific or manufacturing tasks that include roughness far away from standard samples.

Book Confocal Scanning Optical Microscopy and Related Imaging Systems

Download or read book Confocal Scanning Optical Microscopy and Related Imaging Systems written by Gordon S. Kino and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1996-09-18 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of scanning optical microscopy for scientists and engineers. The book concentrates mainly on two instruments: the Confocal Scanning Optical Microscope (CSOM), and the Optical Interference Microscope (OIM). A comprehensive discussion of the theory and design of the Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscope (NSOM) is also given. The text discusses the practical aspects of building a confocal scanning optical microscope or optical interference microscope, and the applications of these microscopes to phase imaging, biological imaging, and semiconductor inspection and metrology.A comprehensive theoretical discussion of the depth and transverse resolution is given with emphasis placed on the practical results of the theoretical calculations and how these can be used to help understand the operation of these microscopes.

Book Automated Dual tip Scanning Near field Optical Microscope for Investigation of Nanophotonic Systems

Download or read book Automated Dual tip Scanning Near field Optical Microscope for Investigation of Nanophotonic Systems written by Najmeh Abbasirad and published by . This book was released on 2022* with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of this dissertation was to realize a fully automated and robust dual-tip scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM) and demonstrate its capabilities to characterize nanophotonic systems. The dual-tip SNOM accesses optical information not simply attained with other super-resolution microscopy techniques. This work thoroughly explained the implementation of a collision prevention scheme and the realization of the fully automated dual-tip SNOM, in which the detection tip automatically scans the entire area surrounding the excitation tip without collision. After successfully implementing the automated dual-tip SNOM, the setup was utilized to measure the near-field of different photonic materials. First, the dual-tip SNOM was used to explore the polarization characteristic of the emission from the bent fiber aperture tip through exciting surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on an air-gold interface. Another unique application of the dual-tip SNOM is to excite the edge or corner of a photonic system locally. The automated detection tip was used to map a complex near-field pattern due to the excited SPPs and reflected SPPs from the edges of the truncated triangular gold platelet. The most distinguished capability of the automated dual-tip SNOM shown in this thesis is spectral- and spatial-dependent near-field measurements of a nanodisk metasurface as a nanostructured sample. In spectral-dependent near-field measurements, the excitation tip illuminated the silicon metasurface at different wavelengths. In spatial-dependence near-field measurements, the fixed excitation wavelength was used to measure the position-dependent near-field intensities when the metasurface was displaced relative to the excitation tip. It was demonstrated that the integrated measured near-field intensities by the detection tip could be related to the metasurface's partial local density of optical states at the excitation tip's position.

Book Near Field Optics And Nanoscopy

Download or read book Near Field Optics And Nanoscopy written by Jean-pierre Fillard and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996-09-20 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the most recent information on optical nanoscopy. Far-Field and Near-Field properties on e.m. waves are presented which illustrate how optical images can be obtained from sub-micron objects. Scanning Probe techniques and computer processing are covered here. An explanation is given on how propagating photons or evanescent waves can behave over distances shorter than the wavelength, taking into account the presence of small objects. Quantum tunneling of photons is explained comparatively with the electron mechanism. Technical details are given on photon tunneling microscopes. Typical results already obtained with these techniques are also described.
