Abstract
We develop the concept of the near-field optical storage using a NIF and propose
a new near-field solid immersion lens (SIL) optical recording system. Our method is based on
the surface plasmas (SP) excited by a NIF-polymer composite nano-layer which is attached on
the plane surface of the SIL. An experimentally-fabricated negative index material comprising
silver nanorods is chosen as the NIF and the refractive indices mismatching effect is considered
in our simulations. The proposed system may be much more close to an actual near-field optical
recording system.
