Combined Stokes Vector and Mueller Matrix Polarimetry for Materials Characterization

Analytical Chemistry, 2013
A robust way of measuring the optical properties of any material is to interrogate it with light of different polarizations. The 16-element Mueller matrix provides the most complete description of the optical properties of a sample based on its ability to alter the polarization state of transmitted or reflected light.

Mueller matrix polarimetry on a Young’s double-slit experiment analog

Optics Letters, 2017
In this Letter we describe an experiment in which coherent light is sent through a calcite crystal that separates the photons by their polarization. The two beams are then let to superpose, and this recombined beam is used to measure the Mueller matrix of the system. Results are interpreted according to our recent formalism of coherent superposition in

Enhancement of confocal microscopy images using Mueller‐matrix polarimetry

Journal of Microscopy, 2009
SummaryA simplified procedure based on Mueller‐matrix polarimetry has recently been reported as a method of retinal image improvement in a confocal ophthalmoscope [J. M. Bueno et al., J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 24, 1337 (2007)]. Here, we have applied the technique to imaging static samples providing well‐defined reflection properties.

Mueller matrix polarimetry with four photoelastic modulators: theory and calibration

Applied Optics, 2012
A spectroscopic Mueller matrix polarimeter with four photoelastic modulators (PEMs) and no moving parts is introduced. In the 4-PEM polarimeter, all the elements of the Mueller matrix are simultaneously determined from the analysis of the frequencies of the time-dependent intensity of the light beam.

Mueller matrix polarimetry with multi-purpose polarization transducer

SPIE Proceedings, 2005
The analysis of Mueller matrix measurement errors, total and for each of the matrix elements, for time-sequential Mueller polarimeter in the case of utilizing different types of Stokes polarimeters in receiving channel are carried out. The consideration concerns of two types of Stokes polarimeters: polarimeter based on four angular orientations of ...

Decomposition Mueller matrix polarimetry for enhanced miRNA detection with antimonene-based surface plasmon resonance sensor and DNA-linked gold nanoparticle signal amplification.

Talanta: The International Journal of Pure and Applied Analytical Chemistry
A decomposition Mueller matrix method is proposed for detection of miRNA and enhanced by using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR). In the proposed approach, a Mueller matrix decomposition method is employed to extract the linear birefringence (LB) and ...

Depolarization effect of bandwidth in Mueller matrix imaging polarimetry

Classical Optics 2014, 2014
Obvious depolarization effect of bandwidth is observed in Mueller matrix imaging polarimetry (MMIP) with a dual-rotating compensator configuration. A method is proposed to correct the effect and to improve the measurement accuracy.

Sensitivity analysis for nanostructure metrology by Mueller matrix polarimetry

Advances in Optoelectronics and Micro/nano-optics, 2010
This paper presents the modeling and simulation of Mueller matrix polarimetry for nanostructure metrology, with an emphasis on the sensitivity analysis. Taking a two-dimensional grating as an example, the modeling method using the rigorous coupled-wave analysis theory has been described.

Hyperspectroscopic Mueller-matrix polarimeter based on channeled polarimetry

Polarization Science and Remote Sensing VIII, 2017
This paper describes hyperspectroscopic Mueller-matrix polarimeters based on channeled polarimetry. The channeled polarimetry is a method for measuring polarimetric parameters using a cosinusoidally-modulated spectrum. We previously reported on a snapshot spectroscopic Mueller-matrix polarimeter based on channeled polarimetry.
