Jones matrix for image-rotation prisms.
نویسنده
چکیده
The polarization-transforming properties of rotational prisms are analyzed with polarized light by using the Jones calculus and the exact ray-trace. A general expression of the Jones matrix for a rotational prism is derived, incorporating an explicit dependence on the image-rotation angle or the wave-front-rotation angle. The Jones matrix for the Pechan, Dove, Reversion, and Delta prisms is derived where the explicit dependence on the angle of rotation of the image is given. An experiment with a rotating Dove prism is also conducted to determine the output states of polarization for incident linearly polarized light. Experimental results agree with theoretical expectations.

Sub-wavelength image manipulating through compensated anisotropic metamaterial prisms.
Based on the concept of sub-wavelength imaging through compensated bilayer of anisotropic metamaterials (AMMs), which is an expansion of the perfect lens configuration, we propose two dimensional prism pair structures of compensated AMMs that are capable of manipulating two dimensional sub-wavelength images. We demonstrate that through properly designed symmetric and asymmetric compensated pris...
متن کاملRotation of Listing's plane by horizontal, vertical and oblique prism-induced vergence
We examined the changes in Listing's plane resulting from prismatically induced vergence. The three-dimensional angular positions of the two eyes were compared in normal subjects wearing search coils and gazing at targets 1.9 m away with and without prisms. For horizontal base-out prisms each degree of convergence in one eye yielded 0.72 deg of temporal rotation of Listing's plane in that eye. ...
متن کاملImage Rotation Using an Augmented 2-Step Shear Transform
Abstract—Image rotation is one of main pre-processing steps for image processing or image pattern recognition. It is implemented with a rotation matrix multiplication. It requires a lot of floating point arithmetic operations and trigonometric calculations, so it takes a long time to execute. Therefore, there has been a need for a high speed image rotation algorithm without two major time-consu...
متن کاملPersian sign language detection based on normalized depth image information
There are many reports of using the Kinect to detect hand and finger gestures after release of device by Microsoft. The depth information is mostly used to separate the hand image in the two-dimension of RGB domain. This paper proposes a method in which the depth information plays a more dominant role. Using a threshold in depth space first the hand template is extracted. Then in 3D domain the ...
متن کاملReal-time quantitative differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy implemented via novel liquid crystal prisms
A phase shifting differential interference contrast (DIC) microscope, which provides quantitative phase information and is capable of imaging at video rates, has been constructed. Using a combination of phase shifting and bi-directional shear, the microscope captures a series of eight images which are then integrated in Fourier space. In the resultant image the intensity profile linearly maps t...
