Abstract
We report a novel method for the fabrication of probes with localized sub-w avelength fluorescing media at their extremities. We present our first resu lts and discuss future plans to extend this technique to the systematic fab rication of fluorescent probes for apertureless scanning near-field optical microscopy.
