ISR intellectual property available to license

US Patent: 6,633,711

Description
A new focused ion-beam (FIB) fabrication method has been developed to produce very clean, well-defined and highly reproducible sub-wavelength fiber probes with metallic apertures of a desired diameter for use in near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM). The ion beam milling process can eliminate the obstruction of apertures caused by conventional metallic coating techniques, and thus increase the optical output.
