    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Polarimetry
    • Image Analysis

    Background:

    • Spatially distributed polarization mapping is crucial for optical characterization.
    • Existing methods often involve complex setups or mechanical components.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a simple, compact, and efficient method for mapping spatially distributed states-of-polarization (SOP).
    • To enable determination of SOP parameters from a single image frame without mechanical parts.

    Main Methods:

    • Integration of a polarization-analyzing optical block (four birefringent wedge prisms and a sheet analyzer) into an imaging polarimeter.
    • Generation of mesh-like fringes on a CCD sensor.
    • Application of Fourier analysis to fringe patterns for SOP determination.

    Main Results:

    • Successful mapping of two-dimensional SOP distribution.
    • Determination of azimuth and ellipticity angles from a single frame.
    • Demonstration with a prototype using calcite wedge prisms.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed method offers a simple and compact solution for polarization mapping.
    • It eliminates the need for mechanical or active polarization analysis elements.
    • The technique allows for rapid, single-frame acquisition of spatially resolved polarization information.
