Abstract: Four-wave-mixing microscopy is widely researched in both biology and medicine. In this paper, we present a simplified near-degenerate four-wave-mixing microscopy (SNDFWM). An ultra-steep long-pass filter is utilized to produce an ultra-steep edge on the spectrum of a femtosecond pulse, and a super-sensitive four-wave-mixing (FWM) signal can be generated via an ultra-steep short-pass filter. Compared with the current state-of-the-art FWM microscopy, this SNDFWM microscopy has the advantages of simpler experimental apparatus, lower cost, and easier operation. We demonstrate that this SNDFWM microscopy has high sensitivity and high spatial resolution in both nanowires and biological tissues.

  • Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopic Detection of Aptamers
    Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopic detection of aptamers Siyu He1,2, Hongyuan Li1,2, Zhe He1, and Dmitri V. Voronine1,3 1 Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA 2 Xi’an Jiaotong University, Xi’an 710049, China 3 Baylor University, Waco, TX 76798, USA Abstract Single molecule detection, sequencing and conformational mapping of aptamers are important for improving medical and biosensing technologies and for better understanding of biological processes at the molecular level. We obtain vibrational signals of single aptamers immobilized on gold substrates using tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS). We compare topographic and optical signals and investigate the fluctuations of the position- dependent TERS spectra. TERS mapping provides information about the chemical composition and conformation of aptamers, and paves the way to future single-molecule label-free sequencing. 1 1. Introduction Surface- and tip-enhanced Raman scattering can be used to reveal the molecular bonds as well as the functional components in biomaterials, which was applied to few and single molecule sensing1,2,3,4. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) utilizes plasmonic resonances of metallic nanostructures to enhance Raman signals of biomolecules5. Weak Raman signals of complex biomolecules could be challenging for measurements at the single molecule level6,7. SERS can be used boost the Raman signals at the plasmonic resonance condition. Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) is scanning probe microscope combined with the plasmonic enhancement of SERS and provides nanoscale label-free, direct chemical imaging method due to high lateral resolution and possibility of simultaneous imaging and sensing at the single-molecule level4,8. Recently, several DNA sensing methods have emerged in various fields of research as subjects of intense studies9,10.

  • Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering with Single-Molecule Sensitivity Using a Plasmonic Fano Resonance
    ARTICLE Received 13 Jan 2014 | Accepted 16 Jun 2014 | Published 14 Jul 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms5424 Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering with single-molecule sensitivity using a plasmonic Fano resonance Yu Zhang1,2, Yu-Rong Zhen1,2, Oara Neumann2,3, Jared K. Day2,3, Peter Nordlander1,2,3 & Naomi J. Halas1,2,3 Plasmonic nanostructures are of particular interest as substrates for the spectroscopic detection and identification of individual molecules. Single-molecule sensitivity Raman detection has been achieved by combining resonant molecular excitation with large electromagnetic field enhancements experienced by a molecule associated with an inter- particle junction. Detection of molecules with extremely small Raman cross-sections (B10 À 30 cm2 sr À 1), however, has remained elusive. Here we show that coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS), a nonlinear spectroscopy of great utility and potential for molecular sensing, can be used to obtain single-molecule detection sensitivity, by exploiting the unique light harvesting properties of plasmonic Fano resonances. The CARS signal is enhanced by B11 orders of magnitude relative to spontaneous Raman scattering, enabling the detection of single molecules, which is verified using a statistically rigorous bi-analyte method. This approach combines unprecedented single-molecule spectral sensitivity with plasmonic substrates that can be fabricated using top-down lithographic strategies. 1 Department of Physics and Astronomy, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA. 2 Laboratory for Nanophotonics, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA. 3 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA.

There are differences in to provide a fast, non destructive means of determining the band positions and the band shapes of the G band layer thickness for graphene thin films. 2D bands and the relative intensity of these bands are also significantly different.

  • Inline Holographic Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Microscopy
    Inline holographic coherent anti-Stokes Raman microscopy Qian Xu, 1 Kebin Shi, 1 Haifeng Li, 1 Kerkil Choi, 2 Ryoichi Horisaki, 2 David Brady, 2 Demetri Psaltis, 3 and Zhiwen Liu 1,* 1Department of Electrical Engineering, the Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802 USA 2Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708 USA 3School of Engineering, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland *[email protected] Abstract: We demonstrate a simple approach for inline holographic coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy, in which a layer of uniform nonlinear medium is placed in front of a specimen to be imaged. The reference wave created by four-wave mixing in the nonlinear medium can interfere with the CARS signal generated in the specimen to result in an inline hologram. We experimentally and theoretically investigate the inline CARS holography and show that it has chemical selectivity and can allow for three-dimensional imaging. ©2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (180.0180) Microscopy; (090.0090) Holography; (300.6230) Spectroscopy, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering.

  • A High-Quality Raman Microscope Can Be Recognized by These 5 Criteria
    www.witec.de Whitepaper A high-quality Raman microscope can be recognized by these 5 criteria Damon Strom, Sonja Breuninger, Harald Fischer, Andrea Richter, Ute Schmidt, Olaf Hollricher WITec GmbH, Lise-Meitner-Str. 6, 89081 Ulm, Germany 90 years ago Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman and Kariamanickam Srinivasa Krishnan first documented "A New Type of Secondary Radiation," which then became known as the Raman Effect [1, 2]. Raman spectroscopy is based on this effect and is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of the chemical components and molecules of a sample. It is a nondestructive method that requires little, if any, sample preparation. Nevertheless, Raman spectroscopy long remained a technique that was only performed in special laboratories. In recent years, however, it has been increasingly losing its outsider status. The reason for this is the development of the confocal Raman microscope, with which not only individual Raman spectra, but also complete images generated from thousands of spectra can be acquired. Through continuous development, commercially-available Raman microscopes are also becoming more user-friendly. For example, modern software interfaces guide the user through the Raman measurement and the subsequent data analysis. There are several key factors that can be used as criteria for determining the quality of confocal Raman microscopes. 1) Speed While in the past exposure times of minutes to hours were common for acquiring single Raman spectra, today these times are generally fractions of a second to less than one millisecond. In one second more than 1000 Raman spectra can be recorded. Thus a Raman image can be generated within a few minutes.
