Paper Abstract
A novel polarimeter for mapping the spatiotemporal state of polarization (SOP) of light is presented. A reference beam of light consisting of orthogonal linearly polarized two components interferes with an elliptically polarized signal beam whose SOP varies with space and time, and thereby a mesh-like interference pattern is formed over a wide-band MOS TV camera, followed by a computer. No use of any polarization component such as a rotating analyzer allows us to map a change in spatiotemporal SOP. The space- and time-dependent ellipse and azimuth for the elliptically polarized signal beam of light are mapped as an experimental demonstration.
