ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a multi-energy polarization imaging method consisting of a multi-fusion, dual-rotating retarder/multiple-energy complete Mueller matrix-based polarimeter and dual-energy capabilities. By subtracting polarimetric parameters such as degree of polarization, degree of linear polarization, degree of circular polarization, respectively, obtained with interrogation light beams of wavelengths λ1, and λ2, the system of the present invention can obtain, in one embodiment, enhanced imaging.
