Abstract

We have developed a scattering-type microscope operating in the mid-IR range with a polarization analysis. The experimental development and the operation of the microscope are described. The optical system can provide for each pixel of the image a matrix similar to a Jones matrix. Examples of polarization resolved images obtained on a SiO2/Si surface grating with a tungsten probe are shown and a high optical resolution is clearly demonstrated through the imaging of submicron metallic lines.
