Surface-phonon-polariton-enhanced photoinduced dipole force for nanoscale infrared imaging

扫码查看
The photoinduced dipole force(PiDF)is an attractive force arising from the Coulombic interaction between the light-induced dipoles on the illuminated tip and the sample.It shows extreme sample-tip distance and refractive index dependence,which is promising for nanoscale infrared(IR)imaging of ultrathin samples.However,the existence of PiDF in the mid-IR region has not been experimentally demonstrated due to the coexistence of photoinduced thermal force(PiTF),typically one to two orders of magnitude higher than PiDF.In this study,we demonstrate that,with the assistance of surface phonon polaritons,the PiDF of c-quartz can be enhanced to surpass its PiTF,enabling a clear observation of PiDF spectra reflecting the properties of the real part of permittivity.Leveraging the detection of the PiDF of phonon polaritonic substrate,we propose a strategy to enhance the sensitivity and contrast of photoinduced force responses in transmission images,facilitating the precise differentiation of the heterogeneous distribution of ultrathin samples.
