Determination of optical constants from Martian analog materials using a spectro-polarimetric technique

Spectro-polarimetric BRDF determination of objects using in-scene calibration materials for polarimetric imagers

For sensing systems that characterize the spectro-polarimetric radiance reaching the camera, the origin of the sensed phenomenology is a complex mixture of sources. While some of these sources do not contribute to the polarimetric signature, many do such as the downwelled sky polarization, the target and background pBRDF(polarimetric bi-directional reflectance distribution function), the upwell...

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

Spectro-polarimetric interferometry (SPIN) of magnetic stars

Stellar magnetic fields are usually studied by spectropolarimetric analysis of the Zeeman effect across spectral lines. Such studies are often limited by the net detectable polarization after averaging the small scale magnetic structures over the photospheric disk of the star. In this paper we examine the possibility to use optical long baseline interferometry to overcome this limitation for a ...

The Intrinsic Dimensionality of Spectro-polarimetric Data

The amount of information available in spectro-polarimetric data is estimated. To this end, the intrinsic dimensionality of the data is inferred with the aid of a recently derived estimator based on nearest-neighbor considerations and obtained applying the principle of maximum likelihood. We show in detail that the estimator correctly captures the intrinsic dimension of artificial datasets with...
