Mueller matrix differential decomposition.
We present a Mueller matrix decomposition based on the differential formulation of the Mueller calculus. The differential Mueller matrix is obtained from the macroscopic matrix through an eigenanalysis. It is subsequently resolved into the complete set of 16 differential matrices that correspond to the basic types of optical behavior for depolarizing anisotropic media. The method is successfull...
متن کاملExperimental validation of Mueller matrix differential decomposition.
Mueller matrix differential decomposition is a novel method for retrieving the polarimetric properties of general depolarizing anisotropic media [N. Ortega-Quijano and J. L. Arce-Diego, Opt. Lett. 36, 1942 (2011), R. Ossikovski, Opt. Lett. 36, 2330 (2011)]. The method has been verified for Mueller matrices available in the literature. We experimentally validate the decomposition for five differ...
متن کاملMueller matrix decomposition for polarized light assessment of biological tissues.
The Mueller matrix represents the transfer function of an optical system in its interactions with polarized light and its elements relate to specific biologically or clinically relevant properties. However, when many optical polarization effects occur simultaneously, the resulting matrix elements represent several "lumped" effects, thus hindering their unique interpretation. Currently, no metho...
متن کاملFast Polar Decomposition of an Arbitrary Matrix
The polar decomposition of an m x n matrix A of full rank, where rn n, can be computed using a quadratically convergent algorithm of Higham SIAMJ. Sci. Statist. Comput., 7 (1986), pp. 1160-1174]. The algorithm is based on a Newton iteration involving a matrix inverse. It is shown how, with the use of a preliminary complete orthogonal decomposition, the algorithm can be extended to arbitrary A. ...
متن کاملInvolutiveness of linear combinations of a quadratic or tripotent matrix and an arbitrary matrix
In this article, we characterize the involutiveness of the linear combination of the forma1A1 +a2A2 when a1, a2 are nonzero complex numbers, A1 is a quadratic or tripotent matrix,and A2 is arbitrary, under certain properties imposed on A1 and A2.
