Abstract
Hybrid AFM probes, fully aluminum coated, are mounted into a scanning near-field optical microscope and used purely for light collection. Their characteristics in coherent imaging of sub-wavelength structures are investigated both experimentally and theoretically. An experimental spectroscopic response study is also performed.
