Abstract：The appearance of near-field Raman spectroscopy that is based on aperture probe scanning near-field optical microscopy makes the resolution of Raman spectroscopy beyond the optical diffraction limitation. It provided a powerful tool to probe chemical information of sample on subwavelength scale. The present article illustrates the influence of probe character on near-field Raman spectroscopy. Furthermore, the development over ten years in chemical resolution imaging on nanoscale, special properties of liquid-liquid interface, exploring SERS mechanism and observing hotspots beneath subwavelength scale etc. were introduced in detail.
