Abstract

Quantum theoretical description of optical near fields is discussed from the viewpoint of effective photon–matter interactions and localized photons. On the basis of experimental data of photodissociation of molecules, a phonofs role is emphasized in light-matter interacting system at the nanoscale. After the brief introduction of localized and delocalized phonon modes, a simple extended model for a pseudo one-dimensional optical near-field probe system is presented in order to discuss the mechanism of photon localization in space as well as the role of phonons at the nanoscale.
