چکیده
The Mueller matrix polarimetry is a useful technique for characterization and imaging of biological materials and turbid medium. The recoded transmitted Mueller matrix elements are highly intensity and wavelength dependent. We derived the sixteen Mueller matrix images out of forty-nine polarization configurations for characterization of the polystyrene sphere of 0.2 to 20 μm illuminated with polarized He-Ne laser beam. The measured Mueller matrix along with 3D and 2D images provides a complete fingerprint of the optical properties and activity of turbid medium. Polarization imaging technique is more powerful then video reflectrometry or other imaging techniques. We presented the system for experimental measurements of Mueller matrix elements and depths resolve transmission images for characterization of scattering and depolarization of birefrengent polystyrene sphere sample.
