  Author : MONONOBE Shuji

   

  We fabricated a near-field optical fiber probe based on size-dependent electroless plating under nitrogen gas atmosphere. The process consists of etching an optical fiber, by palladium coat by argon ion sputtering, electroless nickel plating. The obtained probe has an aperture with a diameter less than 40 nm.
