Figure 3. Super-resolution localization maps with EM field enhancement and emission enhancement results for a tri-disk system.

Figure 3

Experimental results for the localization fields for Al tri-disks structures illuminated by a 405-nm laser in TIR with the polarization orientation indicated by the red arrow. The colour corresponds to the fluorescent enhancement level S and total collected fluorescence FT for a molecular probe at that apparent position for the cases of (a) Pacific Blue dye and (b) Pacific Orange. (c) FDTD simulation of the |E|2/|Eo|2 near-field distribution for TIR illuminated Al tri-disk structures on a glass substrate in water (d) FDTD simulations of the effect of the increased LDOS on the emission enhancement of a dipole at each pixel position at wavelengths of 450, 575 and 700 nm.
