We report on the application of scanning near-field optical microscopy for terahertz imaging. We demonstrate a spatial resolution of 150 nm for 2.0 THz pulses. Our experiments show the feasibility of submicron THz microscopy for imaging of biologic tissues on the cell level or for the investigation of individual submicron semiconductor devices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
