title: Tip-enhanced near-field optical microscopy of quasi-1 D nanostructures.
abstract: High-resolution imaging and spectroscopy of single CdSe nanowires and carbon nanotubes using tip-enhanced near-field optical microscopy increases the optical excitation and emission rates within a nanoscale sample volume. The resulting signal enhancement for Raman scattering and photoluminescence as well as the tip-sample-distance dependence are investigated.
