Application of retardation-modulation polarimetry in studies of nanocomposite materials

open access: yes, 2019
We demonstrate an application of retardation-modulation polarimetry in studies of nanocomposite materials. Molecular ordering is explored on both nonchiral and chiral liquid crystals (LCs) in the bulk state and embedded into parallel-arrays of ...

Evidence of vacuum birefringence from the polarisation of the optical emission from an Isolated Neutron Star [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Isolated Neutron Stars are some of the most exciting stellar objects known to astronomers: they have the most extreme magnetic fields, with values up to $10^{15}$ G, and, with the exception of stellar-mass black holes, they are the most dense stars, with

The Polarizability Vector: A Polarimetric Observable for Characterizing Anisotropic Nanoparticles

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
We find an overlooked observable in Nanophotonics that characterizes the optical response of anisotropic nanoparticles from simple polarimetry measurements. ABSTRACT The optical properties of anisotropic nanoparticles (NPs) are often characterized by two principal components of their polarizability tensor.

Simultaneous optical polarimetry and X-ray observations of the magnetic CV CP Tuc (AX J2315--592) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
CP Tuc (AX J2315--592) shows a dip in X-rays which lasts for approximately half the binary orbit and is deeper in soft X-rays compared with hard X-rays. It has been proposed that this dip is due to the accretion stream obscuring the accretion region from

All‐Fiber Microsensor of Polarization at Single‐Photon Level Aided by Deep Learning

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Introducing a polarization sensor using scattering in a short optical fiber and deep learning. The breakthrough lies in sparse sampling of the scattered light and single‐photon sensitivity. The all‐fiber sensor achieves unprecedented accuracy, speed, resolution, and stability.

Evidence of Fragmenting Dust Particles from Near-Simultaneous Optical and Near-IR Photometry and Polarimetry of Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report imaging polarimetry of segments B and C of the Jupiter-family Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 in the I and H bandpasses at solar phase angles of approximately 35 and 85deg.

Geometrical Phase Optical Components: Measuring Geometric Phase without Interferometry

open access: yesCrystals, 2020
Optical components that are based on Pancharatnam–Berry phase feature a polarization-dependent diffraction that can be used to fabricate lenses and gratings with unique properties.

Investigating the Properties of the Relativistic Jet and Hot Corona in AGN with X-ray Polarimetry

open access: yesGalaxies
X-ray polarimetry has been suggested as a prominent tool for investigating the geometrical and physical properties of the emissions from active galactic nuclei (AGN).

Angle-resolved cathodoluminescence imaging polarimetry

open access: yes, 2015
Cathodoluminescence spectroscopy (CL) allows characterizing light emission in bulk and nanostructured materials and is a key tool in fields ranging from materials science to nanophotonics.
