Imaging in scattering media has been a challenging and important subject in optical
science. In scattering media, the image quality is often severely degraded by the scattering …

Recently, with the emergence of new light sources, polarization devices, and detectors,
together with a prominent increase in data processing capability, polarization techniques …

Polarized Light and Optical Systems presents polarization optics for undergraduate and
graduate students in a way which makes classroom teaching relevant to current issues in …

An Up-to-Date Compendium on the Physics and Mathematics of Polarization Phenomena
Now thoroughly revised, Polarized Light and the Mueller Matrix Approach cohesively …

Since the beginning of electron microscopy, resolution has been a critical parameter. In this
article, we propose a fully automatic, accurate method for determining the local resolution of …

This paper reviews the current status of instruments for measuring the full 4× 1 Stokes vector
S, which describes the state of polarization (SOP) of totally or partially polarized light, and …

It is well known that the spin angular momentum of light, and therefore that of photons, is
directly related to their circular polarization. Naturally, for totally unpolarized light …

We comprehensively review the quantum theory of the polarization properties of light. In
classical optics, these traits are characterized by the Stokes parameters, which can be …

A Mueller matrix is a comprehensive representation of the polarization transformation
properties of a sample, encoding very rich information on the microstructure of the scattering …

In this article, a review of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) methods for sea oil
slick observation is presented. Marine oil pollution monitoring is a topic of great applicative …
