I need help with the following question
For CARS, which statement is not true regarding its advantages?
a) Contrast signal based on vibrational characteristics, no need for fluorescent tagging.
b) Stronger signals than spontaneous Raman.
c) Suffers from fluorescence interference, because CARS signal is at high frequency.
