Polarization gratings are nondepolarizing polarization elements that alter the polarization
state of the transmitted light in a periodic way, yielding a polarization-dependent diffraction …

New designs are presented for polarization-transforming elements equivalent to rotating
quarter-wave plates and rotating half-wave plates. These are constructed from sequences of …

We have studied the spatially resolved polarization properties of the in vitro intact old human
crystalline lens (from 56 to 88 years old) by using Mueller‐matrix imaging polarimetry …

Channeled spectropolarimetry is a novel method of measuring the spectral and polarization
content of light. It employs amplitude modulation to encode all four Stokes component …

In several optical technologies for glaucoma diagnosis, polarized light is used to assess the
retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) of the eye. For better understanding of the polarization …

We have developed an aberro-polariscope that simultaneously measures spatially resolved
polarization properties and wave-front aberration in a living human eye. The setup consists …

The method of reconstruction of complete deterministic Mueller matrices for the structures of
incomplete matrices, which are measured in the method of three input polarizations, has …

Full order Stokes polarimeters are often composed of an analyzer consisting of a rotating
quarter wave plate in front of a horizontal polarizer. A number of measurements are then …

The Mueller matrix describes all the polarizing properties of a sample, and therefore the
optical differences between cancerous and non-cancerous tissue should be present within …

This paper explains a new method of extracting polarimetric data from a Mueller matrix.
Indeed, the main difficulty of this formalism lies in the extraction of the polarimetric …
