Microspectroscopy combines a standard optical microscope with a spectrometer to measure reflectance and transmittance of samples down to the microscale. A numerical formalism that explicitly accounts for the high numerical aperture of magnifying optics retrieves complex refractive indices.

Visualization of White Matter Fiber Tracts of Brain Tissue Sections with Wide-field Imaging Mueller Polarimetry. [PDF]
Identification of white matter fiber tracts of the brain is crucial for delineating the tumor border during neurosurgery. A custom-built Mueller polarimeter was used in reflection configuration for the wide-field imaging of thick sections of fixed human ...

Mueller matrix polarimetry for improved liver fibrosis diagnosis [PDF]
An experimental Mueller matrix polarimeter is used to quantify human liver fibrosis by measuring retardance and depolarization of thin biopsies. The former parameter is sensitive to fibrillar collagen, the latter is specifically sensitive to fibrillar collagen around blood vessels, which is not significant for liver fibrosis diagnosis.

Abstract Multi‐angle polarimetric instruments (MAPs) enable the retrieval of essential aerosol properties over oceanic regions. MAPs retrieval algorithms commonly use a 1‐parameter ocean bio‐optical model (OBM), based on chlorophyll‐a concentration only to represent optical properties over open waters (case‐1), whereas the coastal water (mixture of ...

Polarization‐Dependence of Nonlinear Optical Effects in Silicon: The Case of Ultrafast Processing
The dependence of the input polarization for the nonlinear optical propagation in silicon is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The perturbative regime is examined using pump‐probe shadowgraphy and nonlinear transmission, whereas the case of permanent laser‐induced modifications is addressed using a combination of Raman micro‐spectroscopy ...

Discrepancy of coordinate system selection in backscattering Mueller matrix polarimetry: exploring photon coordinate system transformation invariants [PDF]
In biomedical studies, Mueller matrix polarimetry is gaining increasing attention because it can comprehensively characterize polarization-related vectorial properties of the sample, which are crucial for microstructural identification and evaluation ...

Compared with single‐photon methods, TPM enables deep‐tissue imaging using near‐infrared light, with excitation confined to the focal plane, thereby reducing photodamage. SHG microscopy images noncentrosymmetric biological structures such as collagen and myosin without fluorescent labels, offering direct structural contrast.

Optimizing Mueller polarimetry in noisy systems through over-determination
Mueller polarimetry measurements are increasingly being used to image highly dynamic and short-lived phenomena such as plasma discharges. For phenomena such as these, exposure times below 1 µs must be used. Unfortunately, these low exposure times significantly reduce the signal-to-noise ratio, making accurate and consistent ...
