You might want to check out the several CARS papers my colleague Kelvin
Poon and I have presented at Photonics West over the years. It details our
own CARS system which is almost completely built from scratch. I
constructed it using a Nikon C1 scan head, but the rest of the microscope
is all bulk parts. The 2013 papers in particular should be useful.
