An intrinsic coincident full-Stokes polarimeter is demonstrated by using strain-aligned
polymer-based organic photovoltaics (OPVs) that can preferentially absorb certain polarized
states of incident light. The photovoltaic-based polarimeter is capable of measuring four
Stokes parameters by cascading four semitransparent OPVs in series along the same
optical axis. This in-line polarimeter concept potentially ensures high temporal and spatial
resolution with higher radiometric efficiency as compared to the existing polarimeter …

An intrinsic coincident full-Stokes polarimeter is demonstrated by using stain-aligned
polymer-based organic photovoltaics (OPVs) which can preferentially absorb certain
polarized states of incident light. The photovoltaic-based polarimeter is capable of
measuring four stokes parameters by cascading four semitransparent OPVs in series along
the same optical axis. Two wave plates were incorporated into the system to modulate the S
3 stokes parameter so as to reduce the condition number of the measurement matrix. The …
