Coupling of ultra-broadband synchrotron radiation from the Metrology Light Source (MLS) to a scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscope (s-SNOM) allows for contactless conductivity evaluation in the mid-infrared regime. The system is based on an atomic force microscope, such that the optical signal can be directly correlated with topographic information. Using this method, we investigated the influence of a ferroelectric substrate (LiNbO3) enhanced by its surface phonon on thin films of MoS2. Recent electric transport measurements suggest changes in the carrier density due to substrate polarization.[1] The present findings obtained from s-SNOM studies offer a complimentary way of contactless investigations of conductivity changes.[2]
