title: Hyperspectral imaging with in-line interferometric femtosecond stimulated Raman scattering spectroscopy.
abstract: We present the hyperspectral imaging capabilities of in-line interferometric femtosecond stimulated Raman scattering. The beneficial features of this method, namely, the improved signal-to-background ratio compared to other applicable broadband stimulated Raman scattering methods and the simple experimental implementation, allow for a rather fast acquisition of three-dimensional raster-scanned hyperspectral data-sets, which is shown for PMMA beads and a lipid droplet in water as a demonstration. A subsequent application of a principle component analysis displays the chemical selectivity of the method.
