  • Abstract
    A millimeter-wave scanning near-field (MMW-SNF) microscope with a metal slit-type probe has advantages over a conventional MMW-SNF microscope with a point-type probe. In this paper, contrast of images obtained by the microscope with a slit-type probe has been evaluated in order to quantify the image contrast. The difference of 0.3 in measurement of relative dielectric constants of objects can be distinguished when the dielectric constants are less than 8.0.
