Abstract

We demonstrate stimulated-Raman and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy with broadband pump and Stokes pulses, using spectral focussing to attain spectral resolution and to rapidly acquire spectra within a spectral window determined by the bandwith of the pulses. As Stokes pulse, we use the redshifted soliton generated in a photonic-crystal fiber which allows for simple shifting of the accessible spectral window. We analyze the requirements that the redshifted soliton imposes on the choice of chirp.
