摘要

Channeled spectropolarimeter (CSP) measures spectrally resolved Stokes vector of light and Mueller matrix of sample from a snapshot. While reconstruction and calibration methods for Stokes CSP have been well established, their Mueller CSP counterparts are lacking. In this paper, we propose methods for Mueller spectrum reconstruction and Mueller CSP calibration. Mueller CSP is modeled as a modulation matrix, linking the Mueller spectrum to be measured and the modulated spectrum from the spectrometer. We describe an optimization problem to solve the Mueller spectrum, where both the regularizer and the residual threshold constrain the result, making our reconstruction accurate, efficient, and noise-robust. The Stokes spectrum generated by polarization state generator and the analyzing vector of polarization state analyzer are measured in situ, the convolution of which construct the calibrated modulation matrix of Mueller CSP. Total polarimetric errors and spectroscopic errors are treated as a whole and represented by the calibrated modulation matrix. Both imaging and non-imaging Mueller CSP are experimentally calibrated. Reconstruction results show high accuracy with a root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 0.0371. The proposed methods help make Mueller CSP practical and have the potential to be general reconstruction and calibration methods for imaging and non-imaging Stokes-Mueller CSP.
