Abstract

Without moving parts, the snapshot imaging polarimeter utilizing Savart plates is capable of stable and fast measurements of spatiallly distributed Stokes parameters. To increase feasibility of the optical design, we propose modi cations that enable a wider eld-of view. By changing the Savar plates' con guration and improving the calibration procedure, the unwanted effects associated with the increase in the eld of view can be reduced. We carried out the veri cation experiments of the wide eld of view snapshot imaging polarimeter.
