Monte Carlo study of pathlength distribution of polarized light in turbid media.
Photon pathlength distributions as a function of the number of scattering events in cylindrical turbid samples are studied using a polarization-sensitive Monte Carlo model with linearly polarized light input. Sample scattering causes extensive depolarization, yielding a photon field comprised of polarized and depolarized sub-populations. It is found that the pathlength of polarization-preservin...
متن کاملPropagation of polarized light in birefringent turbid media: a Monte Carlo study.
A detailed study, based on a Monte Carlo algorithm, of polarized light propagation in birefringent turbid media is presented in this paper. Linear birefringence, which results from the fibrous structures, changes the single scattering matrix and alters the polarization states of photons propagating in biological tissues. Some Mueller matrix elements of light backscattered from birefringent anis...
متن کاملElectric field Monte Carlo simulation of polarized light propagation in turbid media.
A Monte Carlo method based on tracing the multiply scattered electric field is presented to simulate the propagation of polarized light in turbid media. Multiple scattering of light comprises a series of updates of the parallel and perpendicular components of the complex electric field with respect to the scattering plane by the amplitude scattering matrix and rotations of the local coordinate ...
متن کاملDepolarization of light in turbid media: a scattering event resolved Monte Carlo study.
Details of light depolarization in turbid media were investigated using polarization-sensitive Monte Carlo simulations. The surviving linear and circular polarization fractions of photons undergoing a particular number of scattering events were studied for different optical properties of the turbid media. It was found that the threshold number of photon scattering interactions that fully random...
متن کاملMonte Carlo model and single-scattering approximation of the propagation of polarized light in turbid media containing glucose.
We present a single-scattering model as well as a Monte Carlo model of the effect of glucose on polarized light in turbid media. Glucose alters the Mueller-matrix patterns of diffusely backscattered and forward-scattered light because glucose molecules rotate the polarization plane of linearly polarized light. For example, the angles of rotation in Mueller-matrix elements S21 and S12 are linear...
