Abstract: A thin polarizer array and a wavelength plate array that are composed of micro regions having different optical axis directions and wavelength characteristics and have a high extinction ratio and a low insertion loss, and a polarization analyzer using them are disclosed. An array of micro periodic grooves are formed on a substrate, with the directions changed from one region to another. An alternating multilayer film formed by alternating a layer of high refractive index material such as Si or Ta2O5 and a layer of low refractive index material such as SiO2 is formed by bias sputtering. By selecting a condition that each layer maintains its periodic projecting/recessed shape, an array of photonic crystal polarizer is formed. By mounting this array of photonic crystal polarizer in a photodetector array, a polarization analyzer that is small, has no movable part, is composed of a small number of components, and enables high-precision measurement is constituted.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and method for microscopic optical recording of anisotropies in microscopically small objects, which affect the polarisation properties of light. The invention particularly relates to an arrangement comprising a beam path (106), running between a light source (102) and an optical sensor (104), whereby the object (108) is arranged in said beam path (106). An element for polarisation optical analysis and an element (116) which may be influenced by a controller (122) are further arranged in said beam path (106) which cause a controlled rotation of the light passing through the polarisation property with relation to a rotation angle. The controller (122) of the arrangement (100) comprises means by means of which at least three different rotation angles may be defined for recording of an image of the object (108) for each of the at least three rotational angles by means of the optical sensor (104). The arrangement (100) is so embodied such that the images of an isotropic region of the object (108) are essentially the same with relation to the rotation angle.

Abstract: To effectively reduce a measurement error in a parameter indicating a state of spectroscopic polarization generated by variations in retardation of a retarder (R 1 , R 2 ) due to a temperature change or other factors, while holding a variety of properties of a channeled spectroscopic polarimeter. By noting that reference phase functions φ 1 (σ) and φ 2 (σ) are obtained by solving an equation from each vibration component contained in a channeled spectrum P(σ), the reference phase functions φ 1 (σ) and φ 2 (σ) are calibrated concurrently with measurement of spectrometric Stokes parameters S 0 (σ), S 1 (σ), S 2 (σ) , and S 3 (σ).

Abstract: Remotely sensing a target may include generating a first beam of optical radiation that is modulated at a first frequency and polarized at a first polarization. A second beam of optical radiation that is modulated at a second frequency and polarized at a second polarization may also be generated. The first and second beams of optical radiation may be transmitted to the target. Radiation at the first polarization and radiation at the second polarization may be detected from the target using a phase sensitive technique and the first and second frequencies.

Abstract: The polarization of the lightwave at the input to a heterodyne receiver can be determined by measurements of the amplitude of electrical signals without the need for phase measurements. This allows more accurate measurements of the polarization in the presence of noise and allows a determination of the degree of polarization of the lightwave.
