Like amplitude, phase and frequency, polarization is one of the fundamental properties of
light, which can be used to record, process and store information. Optical metasurfaces are …

Many linked processes occur concurrently in strongly excited semiconductors, such as
interband and intraband absorption, scattering of electrons and holes by the heated lattice …

A spectroscopic Mueller matrix polarimeter based on spectro-temporal modulation with a
compact, low-cost, and birefringent crystal-based configuration has been developed. The …

The authors present a second-generation broadband 4× 4 Mueller-matrix (MM) ellipsometer
for ultrasensitive infrared-spectroscopic (⁠ 8000− 800 cm− 1⁠) studies of complex …

We study the optimum operating conditions for a rotating retarder fixed polarizer (RRFP)
when the measurements are not quasi-instantaneous but time-averaged. We obtain the …

Interference fringes are a major source of systematic error in astronomical
spectropolarimeters. We apply the Berreman formalism with recent spatial fringe aperture …

The manufacturing of high-quality extruded low-density polyethylene (PE) paperboard
intended for the food packaging industry relies on manual, intrusive, and destructive off-line …

Optical properties can provide rich information about morphology and structure of tissues.
Fresh and frozen muscle tissue samples of goat are investigated using imaging polarimetry …

We demonstrate a radiation hydrodynamic simulation of optical vortex pulse-ablated
microcone structures on silicon (Si) substrates. Doughnut-shaped craters were formed by …

We demonstrated a single-shot, multispectral birefringence mapping by use of a
supercontinuum (SC) vector beam. The vector beam, which was generated by a pair of …
