We present an idea based on Poincar´ e sphere and demonstrate the creation of a new type
of vector fields, which have hybrid states of polarization. Such a type of hybridly polarized …

Clinical translation of coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering microscopy is of great interest
because of the advantages of noninvasive label‐free imaging, high sensitivity, and chemical …

Optical beams exhibiting a long depth of focus and a minimum spot size can be obtained
with the tight focusing of a narrow annulus of radially polarized light, leading to a needle of …

Microscopic techniques based on nonlinear optical processes provide alternative ways to
visualize natural and artificial nanoscopic systems with minimum disturbance. In such …

We demonstrate how a tightly-focused coherent TEMmn laser beam can be computed in the
finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The electromagnetic field around the focus is …

Rigorous calculations are performed to study the effective reduction of the nonlinear
excitation volumes when using phase-only masks to condition the pump and Stokes driving …

We demonstrate a robust, all-fiber, two-wavelength time-lens source for background-free
coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering imaging. The time-lens source generates two …

We report about laser scanning coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy
using a Bessel beam to enhance the lateral resolution. This study covers a numerical …

Abstract High-sensitivity, high-spatial-resolution imaging of organic monolayers on platinum
with second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy using radially polarized beam …

We report a unique triple-frequency symmetric subtraction scheme to effectively remove the
nonresonant background in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy …
