Abstract

We demonstrate low-frequency interferometric impulsive stimulated Raman scattering (ISRS) imaging with high robustness to distortions by optical scattering. ISRS is a pump-probe coherent Raman spectroscopy that can capture Raman vibrational spectra. Recording of ISRS spectra requires isolation of a probe pulse from the pump pulse. While this separation is simple in nonscattering specimens, such as liquids, scattering leads to significant pump pulse contamination and prevents the extraction of a Raman spectrum. We introduce a robust method for ISRS microscopy that works in complex scattering samples. High signal-to-noise ISRS spectra are obtained even when the pump and probe pulses pass through many scattering layers.
