White Light Achromatic Grating Imaging Polarimeter
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed white light polarization-grating-based imaging polarimeters and associated methods. These "snapshot" imaging polarimeters operate over broad wavelength ranges, including thermal infrared and visible wavelengths. The polarization gratings produce a shear between first and second polarization...
