Near-field microwave techniques have been successfully implemented in the past for the local investigation of magnetic materials and high-temperature superconductors. This dissertation reports on novel phase-sensitive linear- and nonlinear response microwave measurements of magnetic thin films and cuprate superconductors and their interpretation.
