Stimulated Raman Spectral Imaging By Microsecond Delay-Line Tuning

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy is a promising technique for label-free imaging of living systems. We demonstrate microsecond-scale SRS spectral imaging by tuning two spectrally focused pulses temporally through a resonant delay-line. Our platform acquired an SRS spectrum within 42 microseconds and formed a spectral image composed of 40,000 pixels in real-time.
