A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.230180, discusses orthogonal matrix of polarization combinations: concept and application to multichannel holographic recording.

The well-known theorem of Pohlke states that three coplanar vectors, not all parallel, can always be obtained by (oblique) parallel projection of three mutually orthogonal vectors of the same length.

The tip of the electric field vector of a light wave vibrates in a plane, describing a figure that can vary in shape from a straight line to a circle to an ellipse. Accordingly, light is said to be ...
