Mueller Matrix Associated with an Arbitrary 4×4 Real Matrix. The Effective Component of a Mueller Matrix [PDF]
PhotonicsDue to the limited accuracy of experimental data, Mueller polarimetry can produce real 4×4 matrices that fail to meet required covariance or passivity conditions.

Mueller Matrix Polarizing Power [PDF]
PhotonicsThe transformation of the states of polarization of electromagnetic waves through their interaction with polarimetrically linear media can be represented by the associated Mueller matrices. A global measure of the ability of a linear medium to modify the

Mueller matrix differential decomposition [PDF]
Optics Letters, 2011 We present a Mueller matrix decomposition based on the differential formulation of the Mueller calculus. The differential Mueller matrix is obtained from the macroscopic matrix through an eigenanalysis. It is subsequently resolved into the complete set of 16 differential matrices that correspond to the basic types of optical behavior for depolarizing ...

Characterization of the Mueller Matrix: Purity Space and Reflectance Imaging
Photonics, 2022 Depolarization has been found to be a useful contrast mechanism in biological and medical imaging. The Mueller matrix can be used to describe polarization effects of a depolarizing material. An historical review of relevant polarization algebra, measures

A collinear reflection Mueller matrix microscope for backscattering Mueller matrix imaging
Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 2020 Abstract We developed a collinear reflection Mueller matrix microscope by adding polarization state generator (PSG) and polarization state analyzer (PSA) into the illumination and detection optical paths of a commercial metallurgical microscope.

37th Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 1999 Presented is an error analysis and correction scheme for observed or measured Mueller matrices. The method quantifies the error in the Mueller matrix elements and allows for the calculations of corrections to all 16 elements of that matrix. The method is

Anisotropy coefficients of a Mueller matrix
Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2011 Anisotropy coefficients α, β, and γ that describe the type and the relative amount of the three kinds of anisotropy generally present in a Mueller matrix are introduced. Their derivation, algebraic properties, and physical interpretation are discussed.

Optics Express, 2017 We consider the Mueller matrix ellipsometry (MME) measuring the ellipsometric parameters of the isotropic sample and the anisotropic sample under certain conditions in the presence of either Gaussian additive noise or Poisson shot noise. In this case, the ellipsometric parameters only relate to partial elements in Mueller matrix, and we optimize the ...

Structured decomposition design of partial Mueller matrix polarimeters
Journal of the Optical Society of America A: Optics and Image Science, and Vision, 2015 Partial Mueller matrix polarimeters (pMMPs) are active sensing instruments that probe a scattering process with a set of polarization states and analyze the scattered light with a second set of polarization states.

Stable Decomposition of Mueller Matrix [PDF]
Stable Decomposition of Mueller MatrixHuynen has already provided a method to decompose a Mueller matrix in order to retrieve detailed target information in a polarimetric radar system. However, this decomposition sometimes fails in the presence of small error or noise in the elements of a Mueller matrix. This paper attempts to improve Huynen's decomposition method.
