New Directions in Tip-Enhanced Near-Field Optical Microscopy — •Julia Janik, Nina Mauser, and Achim Hartschuh — Department Chemie and CeNS, LMU München, Germany

The characterization of nanostructures with high spatial resolution and detection sensitivity can be achieved by tip-enhanced near-field optical microscopy (TENOM) [1].

We report on our efforts to extend this method into further directions. One direction is the application of tip-enhancement to photovoltaic and light-emitting devices as suggested in [2]. We obtained the first high-resolution photocurrent images of carbon nanotube devices using a metal tip to locally enhance optical-to-electrical transduction [3]. We show that the efficiency of the reversed process leading to electroluminescence can be increased as well.

Furthermore we are focusing on the implementation of tip-enhanced near-field optical microscopy at low temperatures (5 K). Therefore we present a new microscope design based on a solid immersion lens configuration providing very high collection angles and efficiencies. We acknowledge financial support by DFG, NIM and the ERC (NewNanoSpec).
