Resonant optical modes arising in all-dielectric metasurfaces have attracted much attention in recent years, especially when so-called bound states in the continuum (BICs) with diverging lifetimes are supported. With the aim of studying theoretically the emergence of BICs, we extend a coupled electric and magnetic dipole analytical formulation to deal with the proper metasurface Green function for the infinite lattice. Thereby, we show how to excite metasurface BICs, being able to address their near-field pattern through point-source excitation and their local density of states. We apply this formulation to fully characterize symmetry-protected BICs arising in all-dielectric metasurfaces made of Si nanospheres, revealing their near-field pattern and local density of states, and, thus, the mechanisms precluding their radiation into the continuum. This formulation provides, in turn, an insightful and fast tool to characterize BICs (and any other leaky/guided mode) near fields in all-dielectric (and also plasmonic) metasurfaces, which might be especially useful for the design of planar nanophotonic devices based on such resonant modes.

In this paper, output near fields of nanowires with different optical and structure configurations are calculated by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (3D FDTD) method. Then a nanowire with suitable near field distribution is chosen as the probe for scanning dielectric and metal nanogratings. Scanning results show that the resolution in near-field imaging of dielectric nanogratings can be as low as 80nm, and the imaging results are greatly influenced by the polarization direction of the incident light. Compared with dielectric nanogratings, metal nanogratings have significantly enhanced resolutions when the arrangement of gratings is perpendicular to the polarization direction of the incident light due to the enhancement effect of the localized surface plasmons (SPs). Results presented here could offer valuable references for practical applications in near-field imaging with nanowires as optical probes.
