Electronic Resonant Stimulated Raman Scattering Micro-Spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Recently we have reported electronic pre-resonance stimulated Raman scattering (epr-SRS) microscopy as a powerful technique for super-multiplex imaging ( Wei, L. ; Nature 2017 , 544 , 465 - 470 ). However, under rigorous electronic resonance, background signal, which mainly originates from pump-probe process, overwhelms the desired vibrational signature of the chromophores. Here we demonstrate electronic resonant stimulated Raman scattering (er-SRS) microspectroscopy and imaging through suppression of electronic background and subsequent retrieval of vibrational peaks. We observed a change of the vibrational band shapes from normal Lorentzian, through dispersive shapes, to inverted Lorentzian as the electronic resonance was approached, in agreement with theoretical prediction.
