Outline of Final Research Achievements

Nano circular polarized light probes that produce circularly polarized light with nano-size were developed. Electro-magnetic simulation revealed that the nano-sized circularly polarized can be generated using V-shaped aperture structure that can control the phase of light and enhance the electric field in nano-scale. Finally, we succeeded to fabricated a nano circular polarized light probe combining Au-coated SiN tip with the V-shaped aperture structure.
