Raman spectra are shown from a carbon nanotube sample where radial polarized (black) and azimuthal polarized (light grey) light is focused onto the nanoparticle tip. The far field spectrum (dark grey), nearly identical in either polarization, obtained with the AFM tip retracted from the surface is significantly diminished.
