Epi-detection of vibrational phase contrast coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering.

چکیده
We demonstrate a system for the phase-resolved epi-detection of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) signals in highly scattering and/or thick samples. With this setup, we measure the complex vibrational responses of multiple components in a thick, highly-scattering pharmaceutical tablet in real time and verify that the epi- and forward-detected information are in very good agreement.

Implementation of vibrational phase contrast coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy.
Detection of molecules using vibrational resonances in the fingerprint region for narrowband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) is challenging. The spectrum is highly congested resulting in a large background and a reduced specificity. Recently we introduced vibrational phase contrast CARS (VPC-CARS) microscopy as a technique capable of detecting both the amplitude and phase of the CA...
متن کاملVibrational phase contrast microscopy by use of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering.
In biological samples the resonant coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering signal of less abundant constituents can be overwhelmed by the nonresonant background, preventing detection of those molecules. We demonstrate a method to obtain the phase of the oscillators in the focal volume that allows discrimination of those hidden molecules. The phase is measured with respect to the local excitation ...

Laser-scanning coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy with fast data acquisition and high sensitivity has been developed for vibrational imaging of live cells. High three-dimensional (3D) resolution is achieved with two collinearly overlapped near infrared picosecond beams and a water objective with a high numerical aperture. Forward-detected CARS (F-CARS) and epi-detected CARS...

In this work, we demonstrate quantitative volume determination of chemical components in three dimensions using hyperspectral coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy, phase-corrected Kramers-Kronig retrieval of the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering susceptibility and factorization into concentration of chemical components. We investigate the influence of the refractive index contra...
