Abstract
Stimulated Raman spectroscopy has become a powerful tool to study the spatio-dynamics of molecular bonds with high sensitivity, resolution, and speed. However, the sensitivity and speed of stimulated Raman spectroscopy are ultimately limited by the shot-noise of the light beam probing the Raman process. Here, we demonstrate an enhancement of the sensitivity of stimulated Raman spectroscopy by reducing the noise below the shot-noise limit by means of squeezed states of light. Our demonstration constitutes the first step towards a new generation of quantum-enhanced Raman microscopes.
