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 …

A broadband division-of-amplitude polarimeter (DOAP) is presented. It can provide the real-
time measurement of any state of polarization of light, described by its Stokes vector, in large …

The spatio-temporal properties of partially polarized light are analyzed in order to separate
partial polarization and partial coherence. For that purpose we introduce useful invariance …

Polarized light is a pervasive influence in our world—and scientists and engineers in a
variety of fields require the tools to understand, measure, and apply it to their advantage …

Laser imaging set-ups permit characterization of the vectorial nature of the optical wave
which is transmitted by a medium or reflected by a target, from polarimetric formalisms such …

Formulas are presented for the recovery of the matrix operators in arbitrary-order similarity
and congruency transformations. Two independent input and output matrix pairs exactly …

Polarization involves the vectorial nature of light fields. In current applications of optical
science, the electromagnetic description of light with its vector features has been shown to …
