Abstract
Excited-state dynamics provides an intrinsic molecular contrast of samples examined. These dynamics can be monitored by pump-probe spectroscopy, which measures the change in transmission of a probe beam induced by a pump beam. With superior detection sensitivity, chemical specificity, and spatial-temporal resolution, pump-probe microscopy is an emerging tool for functional imaging of nonfluorescent chromophores and nanomaterials. This article reviews the basic principles, instrumentation strategy, data analysis methods, and applications of pump-probe microscopy. A brief outlook is provided.
