(color online) FOV of NWRIM. (a) Simulated cross-sectional field distribution with fluorescent CdS nanowire on Al2O3–SiO2–Si double layer substrate. Intensity is shown on a log scale. (b) Simulated field magnitude in Al2O3 film along propagation direction. (c) CNR of images of fabricated slot structures at different distances from fluorescent CdS nanowire light source, achieved with film waveguide fabricated at 300 °C and room temperature, respectively. Inset shows two-dimensional “ZJU” pattern illuminated by NWR. The area circled by NWR is . Reproduced with permission from Refs. [50] and [51].
