Scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy is a powerful imaging technique for studying materials beyond the diffraction limit. However, interpreting near-field measurements poses challenges in mapping the response of…

Neutron and X-ray reflectometry are important methods for studying thin multilayer systems. The Parratt method and the method of characteristic matrices, also referred to as transfer matrices, are used for simulation, evaluation of…
