  • Abstract
    Nanofocusing of surface plasmon polaritons enables broadband elastic scattering spectroscopy on individual nanoantennas without any signal demodulation. Clear experimental signatures of tip-sample gap mode formation hint at a potential increase in lateral resolution to single nanometers.
