N2 - Scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM) is hybridized with scanning tunneling microscope (STM) in order to achieve a higher spatial resolution by introducing a doubly metal-coated optical fiber tip with a nm-scale aperture. The result of a simultaneous SNOM/STM imaging of Au(111) indicates the boundary-sensitive detection in SNOM mode, which is not an artifact caused by z-motion crosstalk.
