Correlative Imaging Using a Multimodal Microscopy System for Investigations at Micro and Nano Scales

In our work we present some correlated images at micro and nanoscale that we have obtained using different laser scanning microscopy techniques integrated in a multimodal microscopy system. The multimodal system includes several microscopy techniques working in far field and in near field. The main advantage of the system is connected with the possibility to image the same area of the sample at micro and nanoscale so that a correlation between the images could be made and an explanation of the images at nanoscale can be done. By overlaying the structural images obtained from different techniques, a more comprehensive view of different samples can be obtained. In addition, the possibility to see the same sample area at micro and nano scales offers the possibility to make a connection between the different elements of the structures.
