Spatial frequency spontaneous and nonlinear Raman microscopy

Raman microscopy has been widely developed for label free nonlinear optical microscopy of biological systems. Imaging speed in these systems is hampered by low Raman scattering cross sections and the requirement of scanning a focused laser beam through the sample in conventional Raman microscopy. The serial acquisition that is necessary in point scanning microscopy slows image acquisition and limits the dwell time are each image pixel. Here, we...
