We present a versatile tool for ultra-sensitive and spatially resolved optical characterization of single nanoparticles.

Using signal enhancement in a scanning optical microcavity made of a micromachined optical fiber and a plane mirror [1] we measure the polarization dependent extinction of a single nanoparticle as well as its birefringence. Harnessing multiple interactions of probe light with a sample within the optical resonator, we achieve a 1700-fold signal enhancement compared to diffraction-limited microscopy. We demonstrate quantitative imaging of the extinction cross section of gold nanoparticles with a sensitivity below 1 nm2, we show a method to improve spatial resolution potentially below the diffraction limit by using higher order cavity modes, and we present measurements of the birefringence and extinction contrast of gold nanorods [2].
