The implementation of a phase-modulating polarization detector into a scanning near-field optical microscope allows the imaging of local magneto-optic effects with spatial resolution. By taking several pictures at the same location with different detector settings, a quantitative evaluation of magneto-optic effects, such as Faraday rotation, becomes possible. Images were taken from thin garnet films using this method.
