The SCUBA-2 Polarimeter [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Optical Design, 2006
A polarimeter is built to be used with the SCUBA-2 camera of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope to study polarized sub-millimeter radiations. We simulated the effect of the polarimeter on image quality and polarization measurements. © 2006 Optical Society of America.

Astrobiological polarimeter

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
Chirality is an excellent indicator of life, but naturally occurring astrobiological (as well as terrestrial) samples nearly always exhibit massive depolarizing light scattering, which renders conventional polarimeters useless. For astrobiological applications, we instead consider a novel polarimeter originally developed for non-invasive human-glucose ...

A Microwave Polarimeter

Review of Scientific Instruments, 1949
A microwave polarimeter is described which enables the determination of rotation of the plane of polarization of microwaves in the 3.2-cm band. The transmitter-analyzer utilizes klystron tube 723 A/B. The microwaves are fed into a horn which acts as a polarizing agent.

A Recording Polarimeter

Review of Scientific Instruments, 1950
A recording polarimeter has been constructed. The principle of operation is essentially the replacement of an operator in conventional visual polarimetry by a photoelectric servo system. A photo-multiplier tube is used which, in conjunction with a mechanical chopping system, delivers an alternating current signal proportional to the unbalance.

A capillary polarimeter tube

Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association (Scientific ed.), 1950
A technical description of a new capillary polarimeter tube and of several methods for securing cover glasses is given. The new tube has been used for precision measurements on sucrose, using a wire recorder to take data in a darkroom; for work with essential oils; and for a novel “optical titration”.

Interferometric imaging polarimeter

Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2004
We describe a new imaging polarimeter that is based on a modified Sagnac interferometer and allows full polarimetric description of complex random electromagnetic beams from only two images as compared with the four images needed in conventional polarimetry. The procedure is analyzed in terms of the interference laws of Fresnel and Arago, and very good

Portable imaging polarimeters

Proceedings of 12th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 2002
The natural light field has long been known to be partly linearly polarized, and it has been suggested that various objects reflect light that is polarized at a specific orientation. Although humans use polarized light, our inability to see it limits our study and understanding of its distribution in nature and of the information it carries. By placing

A Photoelectric Skylight Polarimeter

Applied Optics, 1966
A photoelectric skylight polarimeter to measure directly the Stokes parameters for plane polarized light is described. The basic principle of the instrument consists in the simultaneous measurement of the intensity of light (in the chosen spectral region) transmitted by polarizers oriented in four specific directions.

Improved servo-polarimeter

Review of Scientific Instruments, 1979
A servo-polarimeter utilizing a rotating plastic film as a modulator has been modified to improve stability and sensitivity. The birefringence in a sample being scanned by moving it past a slit can now be determined to better than 3×10−9.
