Nonlinear optical microscopic imaging techniques have advanced for chemically sensitive imaging of solid and liquid samples but lack advancements for gaseous samples. In this work, wide-field three-color ultrafast coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microscopy is implemented for selectively imaging the ambient nitrogen gas. Our technique operates by capturing a series of spectrally selected images with a rate of 5–10 frames per second. The recorded data are analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. This technique has been demonstrated to be sensitive to a variation of approximately 1011 nitrogen molecules in ambient air confined within a microscopic volume of 10 μm by 50 μm by 50 μm. We believe that our approach can potentially be extended toward real-time, in situ chemical imaging of the microscopic dynamics of gases, for example, in ammonia for nitrogen cycle, greenhouse gases for environmental pollution, plant fertilization regulation for precision agriculture, or byproducts produced from lower-temperature plasmas.
