Abstract
We present a multi-focus fs/ps-CARS scheme to perform spectroscopy on multiple points simultaneously for gas phase measurements and microscopy, using a single birefringence crystal or a combination of birefringent stacks. CARS performances are first reported for 1 kHz single-shot N2 spectroscopy on two points set few millimeters apart, allowing thermometry measurements to be carried out in the vicinity of a flame. Then, simultaneous acquisition of toluene spectra is demonstrated on two points set 14 µm apart in a microscope setup. Finally, two-point and four-point hyperspectral imaging of PMMA microbeads in water is performed, demonstrating a proportional increase in acquisition speed.
