3. Jones matrix algebra
3.1 Techniques for writing Jones matrices
Polarizing optical devices transform the total polarization state of light and, consequently, the coordinates of the Jones vector. Mathematically, this transformation is obtained by multiplying the Jones vector by a matrix, known as the Jones matrix.
SCROLL TO TOP3.1.1 Writing a Jones matrix for a single polarizing element
In the Jones matrix algebra, each polarizing element corresponds to a Jones matrix. This matrix [M J ...
