Abstract

Extracting light that has maintained its original polarization state can be used to improve the image resolution in imaging or localize the volume probed in spectroscopy. This paper describes polarization dependent instrumentation and modelling methods used in the imaging and spectroscopy of scattering media. The use of integrated optical sensors in imaging the polarization difference signal is also demonstrated.
