Panelist: Infrared nanoscopy of 2D materials, metamaterials, and optical nano-structures is often limited by the wavelength range provided by table-top laser sources. Radiation from the tunable narrow-band free-electron laser FELBE (Dresden, Germany) uniquely enables near-field nanoscopy over the broad spectral range from 5 to 250 µm (i.e. 1.2 - 60 THz), particularly covering also the so-called THz gap [1-7]. I will present intriguing applications of FELBE in IR-optical nanoscopy by demonstrating extreme field confinement, anisotropic dispersion tracking, and resonant phenomena of THz polaritons in van der Waals crystals [1], nano-structures [2,3] and functional perovskite oxides [4-8].
