Abstract

Localization of optical excitations on nanostructured metal surfaces and fractal colloid silver aggregates are studied by using a scanning near-field optical microscope (SNOM). The SNOM images obtained in both configurations exhibit spatially localized (within 150 to 250 nm) light intensity enhancement by up to two orders of magnitude. The observed phenomena are related to strong (Anderson) localization of quasi-two-dimensional light waves.
