Description

In recent years, there has been a lot of interest in the coherence theory of random, vector-valued optical fields. In this paper, we lay the groundwork for electromagnetic coherence theory in both the space time and space frequency domains, with a focus on various types of optical interferometry. We illustrate essential linkages between the conventional polarization Stokes parameters and the corresponding two-point coherence Stokes parameters by analysing statistically stationary, two-component paraxial electric fields in classical and quantum-optical environments. The coherence and polarization properties of random vector beams are also measured using nanoparticle scattering and two-photon absorption [1].

The Chapter focuses on metrological elements of intrinsically interconnected light field properties such as intensity, polarisation, and coherence. All of these quantities are conceptually derived from the Wolf's coherency matrix. However, the unique singular-optical method provides new insight into their connectivity by anticipating the existence of major regularities in electromagnetic fields that were previously thought to be very random [2]. Thus, phase singularities of scalar homogeneously polarised fields, polarisation singularities of vector in homogeneously polarised fields, and singularities of correlation functions of partially coherent, partially polarised fields all form particular skeletons, or carrying elements of a field. Knowing the loci and features of such elements allows one to predict the behaviour of a field in its other areas, at least in theory. This scenario opens up whole new options for optical field metrology and leads to potential practical applications of novel metrological approaches. The linkages between polarisation and coherence characteristics of light fields in various manifestations, both as one-point and two-point functions are discussed here [3].

In order to accomplish this, we present a framework for generalising polarisation metrology on a broad class of coupled optical beams built as mutually incoherent or partially mutually coherent components that can be orthogonal in polarisation. This generalisation allows for the consideration of partial polarisation and associated vector singularities, which can be employed in both non-destructive optical diagnostics and optical telecommunications with polarisation coding. Furthermore, we depict the Stokes-polarimetry approach and the singular-optical idea of polarisation diagnostics. The feasibility of combining conventional interferometry with local Stokes-polarimetry is demonstrated. A significant portion of this paper is devoted to describing the feasibility of experimentally measuring coherence by measuring spatial polarisation distributions of metrology. Today it is about in homogeneously polarised fields. We represent the most recent metrological tool associated with revolutionary optical current notion optical flows. We show that by observing the influence of such fields on embedded micro- and nanoparticles, some intimate properties of complex optical fields with arbitrary degrees of spatial coherence and polarisation can be deciphered.

Metrological approach appears promising for the construction of optical traps and tweezers for manipulating solitary particles at the microand nanoscales [4]. A distinct portion of Using local Stokes-polarimetry in biological tissue diagnostics, in the context of early pre-clinical diagnosis of some common disorders We represent experimental and data processing methodologies that result in highly sensitive and dependable diagnoses. All metrological approaches and procedures considered are novel, developed recently by members of our team [5]. In the final section, some prospects for additional research in the direction, as well as the necessity and potential methods for overcoming some current deficiencies of optical metrology in the realm of coherence and polarisation.
