Raman imaging is emerging and will have some obvious advantages over fluorescence microscopy. Based on a sweeping source TICO-Raman provides a fully fiber laser based rapid nanosecond hyperspectral stimulated Raman microscopy, spectroscopy and endoscopy. It’s a unique combination of high speed, broad spectral coverage, high spectral resolution and high spatial resolution.
