Abstract:
A new resonant-cavity-enhanced Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) active optical probe integrates a semiconductor laser source and an aperture AFM/near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) probe in either external-resonant-cavity or internal-resonant-cavity configuration to enable both conventional AFM measurements and optical imaging and spectroscopy at the nanoscale.
