Know about the book -

Near-field Optics is written by Xing Zhu and published by World Scientific. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 9810243650 (ISBN 10) and 9789810243654 (ISBN 13).

Near-field optics, dealing with the interaction between optical field and matter in the nanometric region, has become an interdisciplinary field spaning physics, chemistry, materials science, electrical engineering and high density data storage. This book reflects the recent status of this rapidly growing field. It discusses the basic theories, instrumentation, novel probes, theoretical simulations, and the application of near-field optics to the fields of condensed matter physics, new materials, information storage, atom photonics, etc. It provides an overview of the research on near-field optics in the 1990s.
