Abstract
CARS is the one of most exciting and actively developed techniques for real-time monitoring of processes occurring in biological tissues. We present a fiber optical parametric oscillator pumped by specially designed MOPA fiber laser to get time-synchronized optical signals with a frequencies difference of 2800-3000 reverse centimeters. We utilize the fourwave mixing effect in a photonic-crystal fiber to build narrowband tunable fiber optical parametric oscillator. A complex optimization of each part of the source has been performed.
