Label-free spectroscopic detection of single viruses provides component analysis of virus strains. Current methods suffer from low throughput and weak signal contrast of individual virions. Here, we report a wide-field interferometric defocus-enhanced mid-infrared photothermal (WIDE-MIP) microscopy for high-throughput fingerprinting of single viruses. Comprehensive theoretical frameworks for WIDE-MIP signal is developed and experimentally validated by acquiring defocused interferometric and photothermal images. WIDE-MIP not only provides the amide I and amide II vibrations in viral proteins, but also reveals the unique IR signature of thymine and uracil residues vibration in DNA vaccinia viruses and RNA vesicular stomatitis viruses, respectively.
