Abstract

It has long been known that quantum photon correlations have the potential to improve microscope performance, enhancing the information that can be extracted at fixed photon budget. Here, we use them to demonstrate absolute quantum advantage in bioimaging. We show that they enable signal-to-noise beyond the photodamage-free capacity of conventional microscopy. We achieve this in a coherent Raman microscope, which we use to image molecular bonds within a cell with quantum-enhanced contrast. This allows imaging of biological structures that are otherwise inaccessible. Our work provides a path towards order-of-magnitude improvements in both sensitivity and imaging speed.
