Lacoste T, Huser T, Heinzelmann H. Faraday-rotation imaging by near-field optical microscopy. Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter. 1997;104(2):183-184.Scanning near-field optical microscopy with polarization modulation (PM-SNOM) has been applied to image the surface of a yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) film. Lock-in detection of the phase of the transmitted light directly gives the magnitude of the Faraday rotation angle
