dc.description.abstract | A division-of-amplitude photopolarimeter is described that uses multiple reflections inside a coated dielectric slab at
oblique incidence. The first four parallel reflected beams pass through suitably oriented, but fixed, linear analyzers and are
intercepted by linear photodetector arrays for spectroscopic polarimetry and ellipsometry. A particular design is presented
that uses a parallel-plane fused-silica slab which is coated with an opaque reflecting layer of Ag or Al on the back side and
with a transparent ZnS thin film on the front side. Sufficient power is available in the high orders and the instrument matrix is
non-singular, so that all four Stokes parameters of the input light can be measured simultaneously, over the visible and
near-visible spectral range. | en_US |
