Two-dimensional imaging and modification of nanophotonic resonator modes using a focused ion beam

High-resolution imaging of optical resonator modes is a key step in the development and characterization of nanophotonic devices. Many sub-wavelength mode-imaging techniques have been developed using optical and electron beam excitation-each with its own limitations in spectral and spatial resolution. Here, we report a 2D imaging technique using a pulsed, low-energy focused ion beam of Li
