We present a highly stable and compact laser source for stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy. cw seeding of an Yb oscillator pumped OPA with a tunable external-cavity diode laser allows to cover the whole H-stretching vibrational region. In contrast to many other state of the art SRS sources, a single-channel silicon detector is employed. Despite the rather high noise level of the OPA, excellent signal-to-noise ratio is obtained by exploiting the performance of the solid-state Yb oscillator. Since very few optical components are required and a single-pass scheme can be used, the system is simple to set up, operate and maintain. As a further benefit, the simplicity comes along with low cost and robustness.
