Q ( M ) and the depolarization index scalar metrics

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A depolarization scalar metric for Mueller matrices, named Q(M), is derived from the degree of polarization. Q(M) has been recently reported, and it has been deduced from the nine bilinear constraints between the sixteen elements of the Mueller–Jones matrix. We discuss the relations between Q(M) and the depolarization index.
