A new scheme of decorating microsphere with a dielectric bilayer thin film is proposed to enhance the imaging performance of microsphere nano-imaging. Experimental results demonstrate that this scheme can substantially improve the imaging contrast and effective field-of-view of microsphere nano-imaging.
Microspheres as special optical lenses have extensive applications due to their super-focusing ability and outstanding resolving power on imaging. The interface reflection between the microsphere and sample surface significantly affects nano-imaging as exhibited in the fOrm of the Newton's rings pattern in virtual images. In this work, a new scheme of decorating the microsphere with a dielectric bilayer thin film is proposed to suppress the interface reflection and thus enhance the imaging performance. The particle swarm optimization algorithm is performed with a full-wave simulation to refine the bilayer thin film decorated microsphere design, which is successfully realized via a novel fabrication strategy. Experimental imaging results demonstrate that the Newton's rings pattern in virtual images is substantially diminished. Both the imaging contrast and effective field-of-view of the microsphere nano-imaging are improved via this effective light manipulation scheme, which is also applicable to promoting the performance of the microsphere in other optical applications.
