Global Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) market size was valued at US$ 58.7 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 73.6 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 3.3% during review period.

Near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM/SNOM) is a microscopy technique for nanostructure investigation that breaks the far field resolution limit by exploiting the properties of evanescent waves. In SNOM, the excitation laser light is focused through an aperture with a diameter smaller than the excitation wavelength, resulting in an evanescent field (or near-field) on the far side of the aperture. When the sample is scanned at a small distance below the aperture, the optical resolution of transmitted or reflected light is limited only by the diameter of the aperture. In particular, lateral resolution of 20 nm and vertical resolution of 2–5 nm have been demonstrated.

Global near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) main players include NT-MDT, Witec, Neaspec, Nanonics imaging, Anasys Instruments(Bruker), A.P.E. Research, Mad City Labs Inc., etc., totally accounting for about 72%. Europe is the largest market, with a share over 59%. As for the types of products, it can be divided into integration model and independent model. The most common product is integration model, holding a share over 94%.
