"This work was supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under Grant EB00726." Near-field scanning optical microscopy was used to image transient interference between the guided mode and a leaky mode induced in a single-mode waveguide due to a localized adlayer. The observed field response in the adlayer region as well as the period and decay length of the subsequent interference are in good agreement with beam propagation calculations.
