Unlike conventional near-field scanning systems that utilize metallic radiators to pick up the fields, NeoScan probes are made up of absolutely non-metallic parts. Our field probes feature extremely small optical crystals mounted at the tip of an optical fiber. The combination of small probe size and absence of metallic parts thus leads to the ultimate RF non-invasiveness. In addition to fixed-point field sampling, NeoScan systems can also 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. Or they can be used as a real-time field detection system for sensing and detecting electric and magnetic fields in a variety of physical propagation media.

Some of the key features of NeoScan field measurement systems include:
*DUT proximity: As close as 150μm
*Standoff distance (of mainframe box): Up to 50m

NeoScan systems can be used for a variety of RF test and evaluation applications:
