Abstract: | A matrix method for describing fully depolarized light is proposed. According to the properties of fully depolarized light
it is proved theoretically that this column matrix (Jones vector) can be used to describe unpolarized light as well. Thus,
it enables the problems of holographic photoelasticity, including holographic photoelasticity of unpolarized light, to be
simply treated by using a unified matrix calculus (Jones calculus). |
