Abstract

The contrast mechanism in the Depolarization Near-field Scanning Optical Microscope is studied numerically. We solve the complete set of the vectorial Maxwell equations with the Green-dyade-formalism. The mathematical method and its numerical implementation are discussed in detail. First results like the polarization dependence of the image contrast are presented.
