[en] A near field microscope incorporating vibrational spectroscopy as a contrast mechanism would allow chemical mapping in the so called “fingerprint region”, with the high spatial resolution of SNOM [2-4]. Using a scattering scanning near-field microscope (s-SNIM) allows us to simultaneously record topography and frequency-dependent near-field signal of organic and biological samples with sub-diffraction limited resolution of up to 90 nm.
