Abstract
Optics with resolution within the wavelength - scanning near-field optical microscopy - is highly important science field nowadays. Main parameters of the SNOM - resolution, contrast, energetic efficiency are defined by optical probes characteristics: aperture size or curvature radius of the sharp, geometry, material, etc. Fabrication and testing of optical probes in nanometric scale of size are described in the paper. For fabrication of near-field probes the laser many-steps drawing and chemical etching of single- and multimode optical fibers is realized. Investigation of far- field light distribution and theoretical reconstruction of near field carried out the testing of probes.
