摘要：

We have experimentally demonstrated enhanced image contrast of sample fine structure in a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscope using liquid crystal spatial light modulators as programmable Toraldo-style pupil phase masks. We demonstrated through modeling, implementation, and verification of the focal intensity and phase distributions of the excitation beams the trade-offs between improved image contrast and CARS signal levels.
