Area of Science:

  • Spectroscopy and microscopy
  • Ultrafast laser science

Background:

  • Broadband pump-probe microscopy offers insights into material dynamics.
  • Experimental challenges include simultaneous broadband probe and small sample volume requirements.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Analyze broadband detection schemes and noise sources.
  • Develop strategies for high sensitivity and low probe fluence.

Main Methods:

  • In-depth analysis of broadband detection schemes.
  • Investigation of common noise sources in pump-probe microscopy.
  • Evaluation of pump on/off modulation frequencies.

Main Results:

  • Broadband pump-probe microscopy is highly sensitive to laser shot noise.
