摘 要: | By using mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs),electroless silver plating is developed for the metallization of near-field optical fiber probes.This method has the advantages of controllability,no pinholes,convenience,low cost,and smooth tip surface.The metallized probes are characterized by optical microscopy,scanning electron microscopy (SEM),and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS).
