We demonstrate the first-ever hyperspectral s-SNOM imaging system, providing 160nm spatial resolution, coherent detection of multiple phase-locked modes and mapping of the THz optical response of nanoscale materials such as topological insulators in the 2.29-3.60 THz range with noise-equivalent-power ~400pW/√Hz, relying on a 6mW comb-emitting THz QCL. We provide near-field images of Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3 and their spectroscopic characterization in a >1 THz optical bandwidth extracting their optical contrast response through the application of the synthetic optical holography technique.
