CONCLUSION
Scanning near-field fluorescent probes have really interesting imaging capabilities !
• Nano-optics : evanescent fields (localized, surface plasmons polaritons)
• Nano-thermics : heating in stripes, failure analysis, …
UNIVERSAL DETECTOR !
Future :
- Reduce the size of the fluorescent particle : to get a better resolution
- Many studies : plasmonics and thermics
