Experimental 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 کاملSystematic errors specific to a snapshot Mueller matrix polarimeter.
Systematic errors specific to a snapshot Mueller matrix polarimeter are studied. Their origins and effects are highlighted, and solutions for correction and stabilization are proposed. The different effects induced by them are evidenced by experimental results acquired with a given setup and theoretical simulations carried out for more general cases. We distinguish the errors linked to some imp...
متن کاملMueller 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 کاملMeasurement of the Mueller matrix for phytoplankton1
Measurement of the light-scattering Mueller matrix of phytoplankton cultures resulted in a characteristic Mueller matrix much like that of seawater. Voss and Fry (1984) measured the scattering of polarized light by ocean water. We here report measurements of various phytoplankton cultures made to further our understanding of the ocean water measurements. To quantify changes in polarization due ...
متن کاملMueller Matrix Imaging Polarimeter for UV Metrology
The University of Arizona Polarization Laboratory with support from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has assembled and is currently calibrating a UV Mueller matrix imaging polarmeter (UV-MMIP). The desire for more accurate polarimetric and radiometric sensors drives the need for stringent polarization requirements and the ability to more precisely measure system and component polarization be...
