Abstract

The spatial distribution of light intensity in the near field is studied by observing the photoelectron projection images of a subwavelength nanoaperture. The imaging electrons are obtained as a result of a two-photon external photoelectric effect induced in the aperture formed at the end of an optical fiber by femtosecond pulses of the second-harmonic radiation (410 nm) of a Ti:sapphire laser. The light-field distribution in the aperture is not distorted by any near-by object (such as a medium containing fluorescent molecules), which allows nonperturbing measurement of such a distribution.
