Based on a new force sensor, a shear force scanning near-field optical microscope (ShF-SNOM), that can be operated in the different modes and combined with a confocal laser microspectrofluorometer (CLMF) for biological applications, has been developed. Shear force mechanism was experimentally studied and the knocking mechanism is the main origin responsible for shear force distance control in our system. Experimental parameters concerning the shear force imaging and artifacts due to probe geometric effects are discussed. Shear force and near-field imaging of a silicon grating in the reflection mode, imaging and spectroscopy of electroluminescent structures in the collection mode are demonstrated respectively. As a preliminary study for biol...
