Depolarizing differential Mueller matrices [PDF]
Optics Letters, 2011 The evolution of a polarized beam can be described by the differential formulation of Mueller calculus. The nondepolarizing differential Mueller matrices are well known. However, they only account for 7 out of the 16 independent parameters that are necessary to model a general anisotropic depolarizing medium.

Extended Representation of Mueller Matrices
Photonics, 2023 The so-called arbitrary decomposition of a given Mueller matrix into a convex sum of nondepolarizing constituents provides a general framework for parallel decompositions of polarimetric interactions.

Optical Chirality Determined from Mueller Matrices
Applied Sciences, 2021 Optical chirality, in terms of circular birefringence and circular dichroism, is described by its electromagnetic and magnetoelectric material tensors, and the corresponding optical activity contributes to the Mueller matrix.

Characterization of passivity in Mueller matrices [PDF]
Journal of the Optical Society of America A: Optics and Image Science, and Vision, 2020 Except for very particular and artificial experimental configurations, linear transformations of the state of polarization of an electromagnetic wave result in a reduction of the intensity of the exiting wave with respect to the incoming one. This natural passive behavior imposes certain mathematical restrictions on the Mueller matrices associated with

Synthetic Mueller Imaging Polarimetry [PDF]
Photonics, 2023 The transformation of the state of polarization of a light beam via its linear interaction with a material medium can be modeled through the Stokes–Mueller formalism.

Polarization gating based on Mueller matrices [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Optics, 2017 We present mathematical formulas generalizing polarization gating (PG) techniques. PG refers to a collection of imaging methods based on the combination of different controlled polarization channels. In particular, we show how using the measured Mueller matrix (MM) of a sample, a widespread number of PG configurations can be evaluated just from ...

Maximum-likelihood estimation of Mueller matrices [PDF]
Optics Letters, 2006 We show that the method of maximum-likelihood estimation, recently introduced in the context of quantum process tomography, can be applied to the determination of Mueller matrices characterizing the polarization properties of classical optical systems.

Singular Mueller matrices [PDF]
Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2016 Singular Mueller matrices play an important role in polarization algebra and have peculiar properties that stem from the fact that either the medium exhibits maximum diattenuation and/or polarizance, or because its associated canonical depolarizer has the property of fully randomizing, the circular component (at least) of the states of polarization of ...

Loops and polarization in strong-field QED
New Journal of Physics, 2021 In a previous paper we showed how higher-order strong-field-QED processes in long laser pulses can be approximated by multiplying sequences of ‘strong-field Mueller matrices’.
