Global Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) Market Growth 2025-2031
The global Near-Field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 57.5 million in 2025 to US$ 70.8 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.5% from 2025 to 2031.
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.
