Raman scattering spectroscopy is widely used as an analytical technique in various fields, but its measurement process tends to be slow due to the low scattering cross-section. In the last decade, various broadband coherent Raman scattering…

Raman spectroscopy reveals chemically specific information and provides label-free insight into the molecular world. However, the signals are intrinsically weak and call for enhancement techniques. Here, we demonstrate Purcell enhancement…

Coherent Raman scattering provides highly sensitive vibrational analysis through nonlinear light-matter interactions. However, its application to metal interfaces has remained challenging because the intrinsically large non-resonant…
