Relationship between Jones and Mueller matrices for random media

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The effect of a linear random medium on the state of polarization of the transmitted light is investigated, and the connection between the Stokes vector formalism and the coherence or polarization matrix formalism is discussed. It is shown that an ensemble of Jones matrices corresponds to the Mueller matrix in general.
