This paper is the first in a series that will examine image formation in optical systems with
polarization aberrations. The present paper derives the point-spread function (PSF) and the …

The objective of a number of optical instruments is to measure the intensity accurately
without bias as to the incident polarization state. One method to overcome polarization bias …

Methods are presented for the interpretation of the polarization aberration of optical systems.
The polarization properties of ray paths through optical systems are classified as …

This paper describes the infrared spectropolarimeter currently under development at the
University of Alabama in Huntsville. The instrument, the data acquisition and processing …

A polarimeter for characterization of the instrumental polarization of an imaging UV
spectrometer has been designed. In the course of calibrating the polarimeter, the quarter …

Diffraction grating spectrometers exhibit a complex dependance on the polarization state of
incident light. We have characterized the polarization properties of a high resolution echelle …

In this paper we describe the results of a polarization-based Strehl ratio analysis for a high
energy laser system which includes a large diameter Cassegrain beam expander and a four …

The performance of a large aperture, high energy laser system with a return wavefront
sensor is dependant upon the correct measurement of the beacon wavefront and the …

The order dependence of weak polarization elements is investigated and it is shown that
weak polarization elements are very weakly order dependent; if the diattenuation or …
