Abstract
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 .
