Dynamic Mueller matrix polarimetry using generalized measurements
Mueller matrices provide a complete description of a medium’s response to excitation by polarized light, and their characterization is important across a broad range of applications from ellipsometry in material science to polarimetry in biochemistry, medicine and astronomy.

Mueller-Polarimetry of Barley Leaves II: Mueller Matrix Decompositions
This paper highlights the application of decomposition methods in Mueller polarimetry for the discrimination of three groups of barley leaf samples from Hordeum vulgare: Chlorina mutant, Chlorina etiolated mutant and Cesaer varieties in the visible wavelength at λ = 632.8 nm.

Ultrafast Excitonic Transitions in Enantiopure and Racemic Squaraine Thin Films
Ultrafast optical excitation of both J‐ and H‐like bands in enantiopure ProSQ‐C16 thin films leads to highly similar spectral and dynamic responses, suggesting that a single aggregate type is responsible for the excitonic properties such as the giant circular dichroism reported previously.

Mueller polarimetry of discontinuous gold films
The problem of controlling morphology of discontinuous gold films by the method of optical angular Mueller-polarimetry is considered. A set of the samples of such films with different amounts of sputtered metal has been fabricated and studied. The reference structure control was carried out by atomic force microscopy and measurement of the film ...

Mueller matrix polarimetry of bianisotropic materials [Invited]
Mueller matrix polarimetry is a powerful optical technique for characterization of both anisotropic and bianisotropic materials. This review emphasizes methods for the interpretation of measured Mueller matrices, from the meanings of matrix symmetries, to ab initio calculations of Mueller matrices that begin with Maxwell’s equations operating on ...
