Reconfigurable snapshot polarimetric imaging technique through spectral-polarization filtering

Opt Lett. 2019 Sep 15;44(18):4574-4577. doi: 10.1364/OL.44.004574.

Abstract

In this Letter, we propose a simple, low-cost, reconfigurable snapshot polarimetric imaging technique for a color camera to measure polarization properties with spectral-polarization filters. Experimental results demonstrate the unique capabilities, such as obtaining circular or elliptical polarized information in a snapshot, that are not available from commercial polarization cameras and other polarization imaging techniques.
