Molecular ro-vibronic coherences, joint energy-time distributions of quantum amplitudes, are selectively prepared, manipulated, and imaged in Time-Frequency-Resolved Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (TFRCARS) measurements using…
We propose a novel approach using Multiplex-Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (M-CARS) for la-bel-free discriminations in biomedical tissues. The strategy is based on the evaluation of the contrast be-tween resonant and nonresonant…
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a critical tool for chemical sensing and spectroscopy, and a key question is how to optimally design nanostructures for maximizing SERS. We present fundamental limits on spatially-averaged SERS…
Early theoretical works on coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering in optically active medium consider only heterodyne signal and subsequently, fourth- and fifth-rank tensor averages have been used. In this work, we presented a full signal…
Ultrafast lasers have become one of the most powerful tools in coherent nonlinear optical spectroscopy. Short pulses enable direct observation of fast molecular dynamics, whereas broad spectral bandwidth offers ways of controlling nonlinear…
Conventional femtosecond coherent laser spectroscopy predominantly focuses on the temporal phase coherence through time- or frequency-resolved methods. In this work, we suggest an alternative experimental framework based on spatial phase…

Raman spectroscopy is an appealing technique that probes molecular vibrations in a wide variety of materials with virtually no sample preparation. However, accurate and reliable Raman measurements are still a challenge and require more…
The sensitivity of classical Raman spectroscopy methods, such as Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) or Stimulated Raman spectroscopy (SRS), is ultimately limited by shot-noise from the stimulating fields. We present the complete…
Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy is combined with second harmonic generation (SHG) technique in order to follow the early stage of stem cell differentiation within a 3D scaffold. CARS microscopy can detect lipid…
Temporal cavity solitons (CS) are optical pulses that can persist in passive resonators, and they play a key role in the generation of coherent microresonator frequency combs. In resonators made of amorphous materials, such as fused silica,…

Stimulated Raman scattering, employing a pump and a Stokes beam, exhibits itself through both the Raman loss observed in the pump beam and the Raman gain in the Stokes beam. This phenomenon finds application in spectroscopy for chemical…
Broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (BCARS) is an advanced Raman spectroscopy method that combines the spectral sensitivity of spontaneous Raman scattering (SR) with the increased signal intensity of single-frequency coherent…
