Quaternion Approach to the Measurement of the Local Birefringence Distribution in Optical Fibers

Quaternion Approach to the Measurement of the Local Birefringence Distribution in Optical Fibers

A method to structure the Jones quaternion utilizing Pauli matrices is proposed, improving the quaternion theory of polarization optics. It is proved that the Stokes quaternion is the double product of the Jones quaternion and its Hermitian transpose and that the rotation axis of the output three-ad...
