Abstract
The use of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) has revolutionized the field of Raman scattering. Its major achievements are in the areas of chemical analysis and temperature measurements in reactive gaseous media [1-3], fluorescence-free spectroscopy of biological samples [4], and, recently, ultra-high resolution Doppler-free spectroscopy [5]. CARS offers many advantages over spontaneous Raman scattering, among which intense collimated signal beams and virtual elimination of fluorescence and stray light; its most severe drawback is interference between species, which reduces the detectivity.
