CARS image of cellulose fibers. The fibers are visualized through the C–H vibrations of the polyglucan chains in cellulose.

CARS Microscopy: Imaging Characteristic Vibrational Contrast of Molecules

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy is a technique that generates images based on the vibrational signatures of molecules. This imaging methods does not require labeling, yet…
