Low Temperature Scattering Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscope

NanoMagnetics Instruments LT-sSNOM


LT-sSNOM has the capability of near-field imaging and spectroscopy together with other AFM modes such as contact, dynamic, MFM, cAFM, KPFM, PRFM. The tip-sample interface is illuminated by off axis parabolic mirror and scattered light is detected by heterodyne interferometer. A topographic image can be obtained simultaneously with an optical image.
