In 1832 Hamilton predicted that a collimated light beam propagating through a biaxial crystal
parallel to one of its optical axes refracts as a slanted cone within the crystal and emerges as …

Abstract Full Poincaré beams (FPBs) are proposed for polarimetric applications. Such
beams present all states of totally polarized light across their transverse section at once and …

A generalized four-channel, full-Stokes division-of-space (DoSP) error propagation model
and its version with a reference optical path are presented in this paper, covering all …

The use of spirally polarized beams (SPBs) in polarimetric measurements of homogeneous
and deterministic samples is proposed. Since across any transverse plane such beams …

Waves with tailored shape and vectorial non-homogeneous polarization are of much interest
due to the many prospects for relevant applications in the classical and quantum domains …

We present a quantitative analysis of the performance of a complete snapshot polarimeter
based on a polarization diffraction grating (PDGr). The PDGr is generated in a common path …

We present a formalism able to predict the transformation of light beams passing through
biaxial crystals. We use this formalism to show both theoretically and experimentally the …

In this paper, we extend the paraxial conical refraction model to the case of the partially
coherent light using the unified optical coherence theory. We demonstrate the …

Background The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
(CRPD) defines disability as “long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments …

The enhancement of current camera performances, in terms of framerate, image resolution,
and pixel width, has direct consequences on the amount of resources needed to process …
