Fig. 5: Polarization imaging through GOStokes method.

a Schematic of the imaging system. The object is first imaged onto a plane where the (S/R-MBA)2CuCl4 film and diffuser are located. Polarization across the field is resolved by capturing the superimposed image with a commercial camera. b Raw image of a test object captured by the camera, showing distinct patterns of different regions. The inset displays a color photo of the test object, which consists of a linear polarizer (LP) partially overlapped with a QWP. The object transmits LPL in the top right region and CPL in the bottom left. The area in between is blocked by the optical mount. Mappings of the Stokes parameters: c relative S0, d S1/S0, e S2/S0, and f S3/S0.
