Abstract
We demonstrate Fourier transform coherent anti-stokes Raman scattering (FTCARS) microscopy and show that an external field combined with the signal can overcome detector dark noise. We discuss conditions for obtaining shot-noise-limited detection and compare the S/N of FTCARS with other methods.
