Several methods have been proposed to extract the encrypted polarization parameters of the sample from its M ; Mueller matrix polar decomposition (MMPD) and Mueller matrix transformation (MMT) are two broadly utilized methods for this purpose. Here, we compared these two methods (i.e., MMPD and...
When light scatters off an object, its polarization, in general, changes—a transformation described by the object’s Mueller matrix. Mueller matrix imaging is an important technique in science and technology to image the spatially varying polarization r
To overcome this problem, several methods have been proposed to transform Mueller matrix elements into parameters with clearer physical and structural meaning. For example, the Mueller matrix polar decomposition (MMPD) method proposed by Lu and Chipman decomposes a Mueller matrix into a set of sub-...
Achilles tendon injuries, as a widely existing disease, have attracted a lot of research interest. Mueller matrix polarimetry, as a novel label-free quanti
Distinguishing different tissue structures via polarization staining images based on Mueller matrix derived parameters Here we introduce an image fusion method based on color spaces to combine different Mueller matrix derived parameters to provide multi-dimensional structur......

Detailed analysis of the Mueller matrix, encompassing both the forward polar and the differential decomposition, is presented. These techniques are used in the study of both organic and in-organic samples. Photoelastic theory is briefly discussed in order to explain the phenomena of birefringence in ...

Mueller matrix images are interpreted by applying the polar decomposition proposed by Lu and Chipman24, the last step being the most time-consuming (6 s). Other matrix decompositions54,55 exist which have proved their efficiency for strong depolarized samples characterized in reflection. However,...
If the medium can be considered homogeneous along the surface normal over a distance d, the differential matrix can be extracted from: (42) lnM=md=LlnM=md=L Thus, the term logarithmic decomposition is sometimes used for this decomposition type. For a nondepolarizing sample, we obtain [73]...
