What is Quantum Theoretical Approach to a Near‐field Optical System about?

The paper proposes a quantum theoretical formulation of an optical near‐field system based on the projection‐operator method. Special attention is paid to a nanometric probe tip–quantum mechanical sample system, whose interactions are essential for describing such phenomena as atom guidance and manipulation, or local excitation of a single quantum dot. The relationship to the virtual photon model − an intuitive model − is discussed, and the latter's empirical assumption of the Yukawa‐type interaction between probe and sample is justified theoretically. Several applications of the theory are briefly outlined.

Who reads Quantum Theoretical Approach to a Near‐field Optical System?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Medicine.
