Abstract
The combination of atomic-force and scanning-near-field optical microscopie s is useful for characterizing the physical and optical parameters of optoe lectronic devices. With a commercial atomic-force microscope adapted, to pe rform scanning-near-field optical measurements, we succeed in determining c ore diameters, localizing the erbium doping zone, and analyzing propagation modes in erbium-doped and multimodal optical fibers.
