Depth structure analysis by surface scanning in near-field microscopes

High-resolution imaging of the surfaces of samples can be performed using near-field optical microscopes by scanning a small light spot; however, structures located deep beneath cannot be observed because the light spot spreads in three directions. In this study, we propose an observation technique...

description High-resolution imaging of the surfaces of samples can be performed using near-field optical microscopes by scanning a small light spot; however, structures located deep beneath cannot be observed because the light spot spreads in three directions. In this study, we propose an observation technique for near-field optical microscopes that can obtain depth information within the resolution of the diffraction limit of light by analyzing interference patterns formed with divergent incident light and scattered light from a sample. We analyze depth structures by evaluating correlation coefficients between observed interference patterns and calculated reference patterns. Our technique can observe both high-resolution surface images and the diffraction-limited three-dimensional structure by scanning a near-field light source on a single plane.
