We propose an application of the ISTOM to characterize nano-sources us
ed in Scanning Near-Field Microscopies. The model takes into account t
he coupling between the nano-source and the hemispherical lens of the
ISTOM set-up. By changing the angle of detection, experimental data ar
e related to the Fourier spectrum of the source. We show ''images'' ca
lculated with two different distances between tip end and lens surface
.
