Due to its insensitivity to light intensity and the capability to capture multidimensional
information, polarimetric imaging technology has been proven to have advantages over …

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new method to measure the spatial
polarization dynamics of laser speckles. This is realized by using the concept of the …

The concept of ensemble-average polarization and coherence has been applied to studying
fluctuating Stokes parameters in a polarization speckle observed when coherent light is …

The statistical properties of the polarization speckle produced by a random polarization
phasor sum plus a constant polarization phasor are studied. Based on the Gaussian …

Our purpose in this paper is two-fold: introduce a computationally-tractable decomposition of
the coherence properties of light; and, present a general-purpose light-matter interaction …

The surface polarization scattering is investigated in terms of the coherence matrix for the
electric field scattered from a birefringent material with a random interface between its …

A parabolic equation for electromagnetic wave propagation in a random medium is
extended to include the depolarization effects in the narrow-angle, forward-scattering …

Polarization speckles generated via random scattering of light are ubiquitous in natural and
engineered systems. They not only manifest intensity fluctuations but also reveal a spatially …

A rough-surfaced retardation plate is a particular polarization-dependent phase modulation
device, whose performance is affected by its surface roughness structures. In previous …

As a continuation of a previous investigation on the temporal integration of partially
polarized thermal light and/or the spatial integration of polarization speckle, we calculate …
