Unlike conventional near-field scanning systems that require metallic pickup radiators or sensors, NeoScan probes are made of absolutely metal-free parts. Our field probes feature miniaturized optical crystal tips mounted on optical fibers. The combination of extremely small probe footprint and absence of metallic parts or interconnnects at the signal pickup area warrant the ultimate RF non-invasiveness. In addition to local field sampling, a NeoScan system can be configured as a near-field scanning system for mapping aperture-level or device-level field distributions with minimal invasiveness to the antenna or device under test. You can also use a NeoScan system as a real-time field detection system for sensing and probing electric and magnetic field waveforms in a variety of physical propagation media.

Some of the key features of NeoScan field measurement systems include:
Â
*Non-intrusive and non-contact RF measurement
*Broad measurement bandwidth (20MHz - 20GHz) using the same optical probes
*Simultaneous amplitude and phase measurement
*Vectorial component measurement with cross polarization suppression better than 20dB
*Very wide dynamic range (>70dB) from very low field intensities under 1V/m to extremely high field intensities above 2MV/m using the same optical probes
*Typical probe tip size: 1mm<sup>3</sup>
*High spatial resolution driven by the laser beam spot size (finer than 10 μm in diameter) with scan steps as small as 100μm
*DUT proximity: As close as 150μm
*Standoff distance (of mainframe box): Up to 50m
