In near field optics, optical fiber probe is smaller than the wavelength of light. This small probe makes it possible to overcome the diffraction limit due to wave property of light. In conventional optical systems, the image resolution is governed by wavelength. But in NSOM, it is determined by probe tip size and probe shape. Therefore probe tip size and shape are very important points in near field optics. In this paper, we will suggest the new fabrication methods of optical fiber probe and show that the probe tip size is sub-micrometer using SEM.

Near-field photocurrent experiments were performed for GaAs/AIGaAs MQWs at room temperature. Heavy hole and light hole related peaks are clearly resolved even under extremely low power of near-field excitation. By scanning laterally 2 $\mu\textrm{m}$${\times}$2 $\mu\textrm{m}$ area on the surface, minority carrier diffusion process in the well region was qualitatively studied.

Plastics are classified into 7 types such as PET (PETE), HDPE, PVC, LDPE, PP, PS, and Other for separation and recycling. Recently, large corporations advocating ESG management are replacing them with bioplastics. Incineration and landfill of disposal of plastic waste are responsible for air pollution and destruction of the ecosystem. Because it is not easy to accurately classify plastic materials with the naked eye, automated system-based screening studies using various sensor technologies and AI-based software technologies have been conducted. In this paper, NIR scanning devices considering the NIR wavelength characteristics that appear differently for each plastic material and a system that can identify the type of plastic by learning the NIR spectrum data collected through it. The accuracy of plastic material identification was evaluated through a decision tree-based SVM model for multiclass classification on NIR spectral datasets for 8 types of plastic samples including biodegradable plastic.

In this article, a historical and scientific review on the development of an ultrafast electron microscope is supplied, and the challenges in further improvement of time resolution under sub-picosecond or even sub-femtosecond scale is reviewed. By combining conventional scanning electron microscope and femtosecond laser technique, an ultrafast electron microscope was invented. To overcome its temporal resolution limit which originates from chromatic aberration and Coulomb repulsion between individual electrons, a generation of electron pulse via strong-field photoemission has been investigated thoroughly. Recent studies reveal that the field enhancement and field accumulation associated with the near-field formation at sharply etched metal nanoprobe enabled such field emission by ordinary femtosecond laser irradiation. Moreover, a considerable acceleration reaching 20 eV with near-infrared laser and up to 300 eV acceleration with mid-infrared laser was observed, and the possibility to control the amount of acceleration by varying the incident laser pulse intensity and wavelength. Such findings are noteworthy because of the possibility of realizing a sub-femtosecond, few nanometer imaging of nanostructured sample.in silicon as thermoelectric materials.

일반적으로 weakly guiding되는 waveguide의 mode field profile을 측정하기 위해서는 CCD 카메라와 imaging lens를 사용하여 field distribution을 측정한다. 하지만, 이러한 방법은 빛의 회절한계 현상 때문에 특수 광섬유에서 guiding되는 빛을 높은 분해능으로 측정 할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 빛의 회절현상을 극복하기 위해서는 빛이 회절 되기 전의 근접장 영역에서 mode field profile을 측정하는 방법이 필요하다. (중략)

고분해능을 장점으로 하는 근접장 광학 현미경(NSOM)은 최근 높은 관심을 모으고 있으나, 그 촬영 속도가 너무 느린 이유로 실제적인 활용이 미비한 상황이다. scanning 속도를 높이고자 하는 노력들이 많이 진행되고 있으나[1-2] 아직도 실시간 촬영과는 거리가 멀다. 기존의 근접장 광학 현미경(NSOM)은 tuning fork를 사용하여 탐침을 진동시키고 그 진동의 진폭 또는 위상의 변화를 측정함으로써 탐침과 시료의 거리를 측정하는 방식을 사용한다. (중략)

In recent years, a miniature spectrometer has been extensively developed due to the marriage of fiber optics and semiconductor detector array. This type of miniature spectrometer has advantages of low price and robustness due to the capability of mass production and no moving parts are required such as lenses, mirrors and scanning monochromator. These systems are ideal for use in teaching labs, process monitoring and field analyses. A portable near infrared (NIR) system has been developed for qualitative and quantitative analysis. This system includes a tungsten halogen lamp for light source, a fiber optics connected a light source, and a sample module to the microspectrometer, The size of spectrometer can be as small as 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm x 0.1 cm. Wavelength ranges can be chosen as 360-800 nm, 800-1100 nm and 1100-1900 nm depending on the type of detector. The software consists of various tools for multivariate analysis and pattern recognition techniques. To evaluate the system, long and short-term stability, wavelength accuracy, and stray light have been investigated and compared with conventional scanning type NIR spectrometer. This developed system can be sufficiently used for quantitative and qualitative analysis for various samples such as agricultural product, herbal medicine, food, petroleum, and pharmaceuticals, etc.
