Notes:
We demonstrate high-speed near-field scanning optical microscopy using a tapered fiber tip that is inserted in a perforated quartz-crystal resonator. With this high-frequency dithering probe, we have obtained near-field optical images at the scanning speed of 1.3 mm/s and it takes only 0.5 s to image the surface area of 100 μm2 for 64×64 pixels without any compromise of spatial lateral resolution. As an application, we have obtained sequential scanning images of the diffusing microspheres in water, which shows slow change of the sample configuration in the time scale of several minutes. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.
