Abstract We demonstrated high‐resolution continuous‐wave (CW) coherent anti‐Stokes Raman spectroscopy of gaseous samples in a single ring hollow‐core photonic crystal fiber. Pump beam and Stokes beam were provided by CW single longitudinal mode lasers. These narrow linewidth lasers brought the benefit of a spectral resolution of 99 MHz. The high resolution allowed a measurement of a linewidth 0.3 GHz of the ν 1 transition of CO 2 in a gas mixture with partial pressure of 0.15 MPa and total pressure of 0.9 MPa. Pump beam from a tunable dye laser and Stokes beam from an external cavity diode laser were coupled into the fiber containing gaseous CO 2 . Fundamental mode phase matching was achieved by tuning gas pressure. The long interaction length provided by the hollow fiber yielded a 60‐dB increase in the anti‐Stoke signal. The attained signal to noise ratio of the spectrum of ν 1 component of 0.6‐MPa CO 2 was ~25,000 with 152‐mW pump power and 1.4‐mW Stokes power.
