Paper Abstract
The performance of two different photonic crystal fibers (PCF) of identical lengths for implementation of the Stokes
source in a multimodal CARS microscopy and spectroscopy setup is compared. RIN measurements are performed to
experimentally determine the noise in the supercontinuum from the two fibers as well as in the CARS signal under
similar excitation conditions of the input pulse into the PCF. The RIN of the CARS signal is found to be higher than
the RIN of the corresponding Stokes signal, in both fibers. The implications for CARS microscopy of the SC spectrum
and its noise dependence on input pulse conditions in both fibers, are discussed.
