  "abstract": "Atomic force microscopy has enabled the direct probing of thermally generated electromagnetic near fields beyond the diffraction limit. In particular, thermal radiation scanning tunneling microscopy enables nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy of near-field thermal radiation without external illumination, providing access to the electromagnetic local density of states and thermally excited polaritonic modes. This perspective summarizes the state of the art in AFM-based detection of near-field thermal emission, discusses key experimental and conceptual challenges—including detector sensitivity, tip-induced perturbations, and quantitative interpretation— and outlines future opportunities in van der Waals materials, subwavelength resonators, and nanoscale radiative heat transfer.",
