Optimization of s-Polarization Sensitivity in Apertureless Near-Field Optical Microscopy

Figure 5

Scattering images of the s-polarization laser focus measured by the probes with different silver coatings. The images (a)ā€“(d) correspond to the probes shown in Figures 4(a)ā€“4(d), respectively. The contrasts in the images correspond to the s-polarization sensitivities of these probes.
