Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2009037249A1] The invention generally pertains to the field of solid immersion lenses for optical applications in high resolution microscopy. The lens of the invention includes a spherical sector (1) limited by a planar surface (11) and an object (2) having nanometric dimensions arranged on the planar surface at the focus of said solid immersion lens. A light-opaque layer (3) having a central opening (31) with nanometric dimensions can be provided on the planar surface, said opening being centred on the focus of the solid immersion lens. The nano-object can be a tube or a thread having a cylindrical shape. The lens of the invention can be made using lithography techniques.
