Pylarization is a Python module that aids in processing light polarization states. For given method of polarization description it can calculate all parameters of a polarization ellipse.
The following should do, as pylarization does not have any platform-specific dependancies.
pip install pylarizationPolarizationEllipse is the base class for all classes describing different methods of describing the state of polarization.
To create an instance it is necessary to supply light amplitudes along the X and Y axes and the phase difference between the amplitudes.
light = PolarizationEllipse(0.445, 0.89, 1.57)light = JonesVector(0.445, 0.89j)light = StokesVector(1, 0.6, 0, 0.8)matrix_values = numpy.matrix([[1, 0], [0, -1j]])
light = JonesMatrix(matrix_values) * JonesVector(1, -1j)
light.vector
matrix([[ 1.+0.j],
[-1.+0.j]])matrix_values = numpy.matrix([[0.5, 0.5, 0, 0], [0.5, 0.5, 0, 0], [0 , 0, 0, 0], [0 , 0, 0, 0]])
light = MuellerMatrix(matrix_values) * StokesVector(1, 0, 0, 0)
light.vector
matrix([[0.5],
[0.5],
[0. ],
[0. ]])
