Near-field optical microscopy and spectroscopy with pointed probes
Article Abstract:
The evolution of the field from the 'classical aperture-based method toward the development of near-field optical microscopy with pointed probes or apertureless probes is described. The advances found in the state-of-art theory that describe the field distribution under an illuminated probe, as well as advances in the experimental implementation of scattering and excitation probe techniques are highlighted.

Optical diagnostics for thin film processing
Article Abstract:
Optical diagnostics are used to investigate the plasma or neutral gas above the substrate, particles in the gas or on the surface, the film surface and reactor walls, the film itself, and the substrate during thin film processing. The development and the application of optical probes are highlighted for analyzing plasma/gas phase intermediaries and products and film composition and other such functions.
