Excellent- More about Polarized Light and the Mueller Matrix Approach
Polarized Light and the Mueller Matrix Approach is a comprehensive book that combines physics and mathematics to explain polarization phenomena. It discusses the states of polarization of electromagnetic waves and the transformations of these states by material media, with selected examples illustrating applications in materials science, biology, and optics technology. The book covers basic concepts, nondepolarizing linear transformations, Jones and Mueller matrices, parallel decompositions, serial decompositions, and geometric approaches to filtering measured Mueller matrices. It is suitable for advanced graduates and professionals.

Now thoroughly revised,Polarized Light and the Mueller Matrix Approach provides a comprehensive and up-to-date exploration of the physics and mathematics of polarization phenomena. This comprehensive text seamlessly integrates fundamental concepts of polarization from two distinct perspectives: the states of polarization of electromagnetic waves and the transformations of these states by material media. Through a selection of illustrative examples, it showcases real-world applications in materials science, biology, and optics technology.
The book begins by delving into the foundational concepts related to two- and three-dimensional polarization states. It then proceeds to describe the nondepolarizing linear transformations of these polarization states through the Jones and Mueller-Jones approaches. The authors further explore the forms and properties of the Jones and Mueller matrices associated with various types of nondepolarizing media, delve into the foundations of the Mueller matrix, and conduct a detailed analysis of the physical parameters associated with Mueller matrices.
The authors move on to introduce useful approaches that offer a geometric perspective on the polarization effects exhibited by different types of media. These approaches encompass arbitrary decomposition, parallel decompositions, and powerful serial decompositions of depolarizing Mueller matrices. Additionally, the book examines the general formalism and specific algebraic quantities and notions related to the concept of differential Mueller matrix.
Suitable for advanced graduates and seasoned professionals, this book covers the major aspects of polarized radiation and polarization effects of materials. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and engineers seeking to deepen their understanding of this interdisciplinary field.
