Scanning plasmon near-field microscopy: signal–noise ratio of different registration schemes and prospects for single molecule detection

Abstract

Possible registration schemes of scanning plasmon near-field microscopes (SPNMs) are considered and their signal–noise ratios are evaluated. A comparison among these schemes is made with particular attention to the best scheme for a single molecule detection by a SPNM.
