Driven by applications in chemical sensing, biological imaging and material
characterisation, Raman spectroscopies are attracting growing interest from a variety of …

Raman spectroscopy is an increasingly popular technique in many areas, including biology
and medicine. It is based on Raman scattering, a phenomenon in which incident photons …

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy is a label-free imaging
technique that is capable of real-time, nonperturbative examination of living cells and …

In his 1665 treatise, Micrographia, Robert Hooke described the many observations he had
made using a microscope, including compartment-like structures in cork samples that he …

Cellular biomolecules contain unique molecular vibrations that can be visualized by
coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy without the need for labels. Here …

Lipid droplets (LDs) are highly dynamic organelles that perform multiple functions, including
the regulated storage and release of cholesterol and fatty acids. Information on the …

The gold standard for clinical diagnostics of tissues is immunofluorescence staining. Toxicity
of many fluorescent dyes precludes their application in vivo. Raman spectroscopy, a …

We demonstrate high performance coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS)
microscopy of live cells and tissues with user-variable spectral resolution and broad Raman …

In this review the basis, recent developments and applications of coherent anti-Stokes
Raman scattering (CARS) in the fields of spectroscopy and microscopy are dialed with. The …

We report the use of adaptive optics with coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS)
microscopy for label-free deep tissue imaging based on molecular vibrational spectroscopy …
