Abstract
The relationship between sample structure and data in volume-scanning backscattering mode near-field optical microscopy is investigated. It is shown that the three-dimensional structure of a dielectric sample is encoded in the phase and amplitude of the scattered field and that an approximate reconstruction of the sample structure may be obtained.
