摘要
Recent progress on the use of near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) to characterize organic thin film materials is extensively reviewed. NSOM is leading to important new information on the morphology and spatially resolved optical properties of a variety of materials, complementing more widely available methods for thin film analysis. Materials described in this review include polymer thin films, molecular aggregates, molecular crystals, molecular semiconductor hetero-junctions, biological materials, and molecular mono-, bi-, and multi-layer films.
