Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) — Public Tier

(3 scenes)

Full-access development tier with all data visible.

What you get

Measurements (y), ideal forward operator (H), spec ranges, ground truth (x_true), and true mismatch spec.

How to use

Load HDF5 → compare reconstruction vs x_true → check consistency → iterate.

What to submit

Reconstructed signals (x_hat) and corrected spec as HDF5.

Parameter Specifications

True spec visible — use these exact values for Scenario III oracle reconstruction.

Parameter Spec Range True Value Unit
tip_sample_distance 2.0 – 26.0 14.0 nm
aperture_size_error -4.0 – 8.0 2.0 -
topographic_coupling -6.0 – 12.0 3.0 -
far_field_background -4.0 – 8.0 2.0 -
