N1 - Funding Information:
We have successfully demonstrated a working mid-IR OCT system using a novel high power, low ocherence mid-IR super-luminescent emitter. The system can image complex samples and has a resolution of less than 50 µm. The excellent spectral qualities of the emitter allow chemical analysis of samples, and the spectral measurements made by the OCT system match spectral measurements taken by a commercial FTIR. This work is supported in part by MIRTHE (NSF-ERC). M. C. Zheng is also supported by the NDSEG and the Harold W. Dodds Fellowships.
