Title:
A MULTIMODAL PLATFORM FOR NONLINEAR OPTICAL MICROSCOPY AND MICROSPECTROSCOPY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/071682
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for providing images using a multimodal nonlinear optical microscope is disclosed. The method includes providing a foundation femtosecond laser beam, generating a first femtosecond laser beam and a second femtosecond laser beam corresponding to the foundation femtosecond laser beam, combining the first femtosecond laser beam and the foundation femtosecond laser beam to generate a first combination femtosecond laser beam, and generating a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) signal based on the first combination femtosecond laser beam. A multimodal nonlinear optical microscopy platform is also disclosed.
