TL;DR: In this article, the anti-Stokes Raman spectra (CARS) of diphenyl octatetraene (DHT) in benzene were measured using optical and electronic arrangement.

TL;DR: This work represents one step in the demonstration that the high signal to noise ratio, fluorescence rejection, and low average power levels of the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering experiment can be used to advantage in Raman studies of dilute solutions and materials of biological interest.

TL;DR: It appears that CARS spectroscopy, with its advantageous fluorescence rejection, can be usefully applied to biological samples by exploiting resonance enhancement, and the wavelength dependence of CARS is evidently steeper.
