Abstract Nano-optics is an emergent research field in physics that appeared in the 1980s, which deals with light--matter optical interactions at the nanometerscale. In early studies of nano-optics, the main concern focus is to obtainhigher optical resolution over the diffraction limit. The researches ofnear-field imaging and spectroscopy based on scanning near-field opticalmicroscopy (SNOM) are developed. The exploration of improving SNOM probe fornear-field detection leads to the emergence of surface plasmons. In thesense of resolution and wider application, there has been a significanttransition from seeking higher resolution microscopy to plasmonic near-fieldmodulations in the nano-optics community during the nano-optic development.Nowadays, studies of nano-optics prefer the investigation of plasmonics indifferent material systems. In this article, the history of the developmentof near-field optics is briefly reviewed. The difficulties of conventionalSNOM to achieve higher resolution are discussed. As an alternative solution,surface plasmons have shown the advantages of higher resolution, widerapplication, and flexible nano-optical modulation for new devices. Thetypical studies in different periods are introduced and characteristics ofnano-optics in each stage are analyzed. In this way, the evolution progressfrom near-field optics to plasmonics of nano-optics research is presented.The future development of nano-optics is discussed then.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
