Near-Field Optics: Theory, Instrumentation, and Applications

A complete guide to one of the most revolutionary technologies in the history of imaging

Near-field microscopes combine the richness of optical analysis, the noninvasive character of light, and the wide variety of sample environments of conventional microscopes with the finer spatial resolution of alternative technologies. Near-Field Optics combines an introduction to near-field optical theory with a handbook and reference for the practice and application of near-field microscopy. Michael ...
