Measuring Mueller matrix of an arbitrary optical element with a fixed set of polarization optics

open access: yes, 2013
We have described a novel way to determine the Mueller matrix of any optical element by using projection method. For this purpose, we have used two universal SU(2) gadgets for polarization optics to obtain projection matrix directly from the experiment ...

Analytical Modelling of Thirty Meter Telescope Optics Polarization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The polarization introduced due to Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) optics is calculated using an analytical model. Mueller matrices are also generated for each optical element using Zemax, based on which the instrumental polarization due to the entire ...

Role of spatial coherence in polarization tomography

open access: yes, 2005
We analyze an experimental setup in which a quasi-monochromatic spatially coherent beam of light is used to probe a paraxial optical scatterer. We discuss the effect of the spatial coherence of the probe beam on the Mueller matrix representing the ...

The Cone of Mueller Matrices

open access: yes, 2023
In the study of polarized light, there are two basic notions: the Stokes vectors and the matrices which preserve them, called Mueller matrices. The set of Stokes vectors forms a cone: the Future Light Cone. In this work we will see that the Mueller matrices also form a cone in the vector space of real matrices of size 4X4, called the Mueller Cone.

Quantum theory of polarimetry: From quantum operations to Mueller matrices

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
Quantum descriptions of polarization show the rich degrees of freedom underlying classical light. While changes in polarization of light are well described classically, a full quantum description of polarimetry, which characterizes substances by their ...

Biocompatible but Antibacterial Mechanism of Graphene Oxide for Sustainable Antibiotics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene oxide (GO) exhibits selective antibacterial activity through specific interactions between its oxygen functional groups and bacterial membrane phospholipid POPG, causing membrane destabilization while maintaining biocompatibility. Model membrane studies and infected wound models in mice and pigs demonstrate effective bacterial suppression and ...
