Abstract

Optical waveguide microscopy is introduced as a novel imaging technique that allows for the microscopic characterization of thin-film samples by using guided optical waves as illumination light source. Excellent thickness (<1 nm) and good lateral resolution (<10 μm) is demonstrated. As a first application we image and analyze the two-dimensional thickness profile of a planar polymeric spun-on waveguide structure.
