Abstract

We describe the realization of a phase-sensitive and ultrafast near-field microscope, optimized for investigation of surface plasmon polariton propagation. The apparatus consists of a homebuilt near-field microscope that is incorporated in Mach-Zehnder-type interferometer which enables heterodyne detection. We show that this microscope is able to measure dynamical properties of both photonic and plasmonic systems with phase sensitivity.

摘要

我们描述了一种用于研究表面等离激元极化激元传播的相敏超快近场显微镜的实现。该装置由一台自制的近场显微镜组成，该显微镜集成在马赫曾德尔型干涉仪中，可实现外差检测。我们表明，这种显微镜能够以相敏方式测量光子和等离子体系统的动态特性。
