<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a near-field optical probe capable of detecting near-field light with high sensitivity. <P>SOLUTION: The near-field optical probe includes: a light shielding member 103 which has an opening 104 smaller than a wavelength of irradiated light; a light receiving element 101 which receives light to be made incident via the opening 104; and a super-high wavenumber transmission medium 102 which is arranged at least between the opening 104 and the light receiving element 101 and whose permittivity or magnetic permeability shows anisotropy. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
