Abstract

A method for observing nanostructures by optical microscopy is provided. Firstly, a sample with a nanostructure and a vapor-condensation-assisted optical microscopy system are provided. The vapor-condensation-assisted optical microscopy system comprises a vapor-condensation-assisted device and an optical microscope comprising a stage. The vapor-condensation-assisted device is used to provide a vapor to sample on the stage in application. Secondly, locating the sample is located on the stage. Thirdly, a vapor is applied to the sample to observe the sample via the optical microscopy system.
