The polarization state is defined by the electric field which can be linear, elliptical or circular. Linear Polarization Linear polarized light travels in a wave perpendicular to the direction of ...

that transmitting circular polarization provides 5dB of margin improvement over linear polarization. In 2008, tests in a controlled environment showed that, compared to CP, elliptical polarization ...

Researchers have designed a metasurface that can be continuously tuned from linear to elliptical birefringence, opening up the entire space of polarization control with just one device.

has performed deep imaging linear and circular polarimetry of the 'Cat's Paw Nebula' (NGC 6334) located in the constellation Scorpius, successfully detecting high degrees of circular polarization ...
