Meaning of diattenuation | Babel Free

Definitions

attenuation of light that depends upon its polarization

Examples

“Singular Mueller matrices play an important role in polarization algebra and have peculiar properties that stem from the fact that either the medium exhibits maximum diattenuation and/or polarizance, or because its associated canonical depolarizer has the property of fully randomizing, the circular component (at least) of the states of polarization of light incident on it.”
