Description

Spectral polarization detection system and detection method for frequency domain modulation
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of polarization measurement, and particularly relates to a spectral polarization detection system and a spectral polarization detection method for frequency domain modulation.
Background
Polarization is an important property of light, and polarized light is very sensitive to microstructure characteristics in samples such as optical elements, materials, biological tissues and the like. The interaction of light with the sample can cause refraction, reflection, scattering, etc. to change the polarization state of the incident light. The change capability of the sample on the polarization state of light is represented by a Mueller matrix, the Mueller matrix contains all polarization information of the sample, can be further decomposed into polarization parameters which are closely related to the microstructure of the sample, have practical physical significance, can be quantized, such as depolarization, phase retardation, dichroism, fast axis direction angle, optical rotation and the like, and can be used for obtaining the polarization characteristics and the structural parameters of the sample. A great deal of research shows the application effect of the polarimeter in the aspects of objective polarization aberration detection, multilayer film thickness analysis, microstructure device parameter detection, cancer diagnosis and curative effect monitoring. However, the polarization information cannot be directly detected, and must be obtained by demodulation after being modulated to other domains, and the modulation and demodulation determine the structural form, the measurement speed and the measurement precision of the system, so the modulation mode and the data processing method of the polarimeter are extremely important.
Taking cancer diagnosis as an example, a common white light endoscope can clearly display the conditions of the cavity mucosa and discover abnormal conditions such as nodules and ulcers, but the imaging depth is limited to the surface. In order to improve the imaging contrast and the diagnosis accuracy, a polarization endoscopic imaging technology is proposed. Patent document CN104161493A discloses a polarization imaging endoscope system and an endoscopic imaging method, which are based on a rigid endoscope design, are difficult to enter into the digestive tract organs such as esophagus, intestines and stomach, and have limited use scenes. The patent document CN106725250A discloses a flexible endoscopic polarization imaging system and a measurement method with time modulation at the distal end, wherein the rotating motor at the distal end of the endoscope occupies the instrument channel and the flushing channel, so that the distal head is too large, and the time modulation mode may take much measurement time. The documents Rivet S, Bradu A, Podolean A.70kHz full 4x4Mueller polarimeter and simulaneous fiber alignment [ J ]. Optics express,2015,23(18) disclose a proximal frequency domain modulation polarization flexible endoscope, which places a polarization modulation device at the proximal end of the endoscope, adopts an optical fiber for image transmission, belongs to a non-imaging endoscope, and therefore a two-dimensional scanning mechanism is required to be added at the distal end of the endoscope, and the field of view is limited; the optical fibers in the endoscope can generate birefringence due to the characteristics of the optical fibers or stress, and measurement errors are introduced.
The above systems relate to the modulation process of a polarizer, and for the demodulation process of a data processing method (demodulation process), documents L aCasse C F, Chipman R A, Tyo J S.band limited data recovery modulated polarizers [ J ]. Optics express,2011,19(16): 14976:14989summarize the most widely used Fourier method and linear transformation method at present, wherein the Fourier method has the problems of band crosstalk, high frequency loss, poor anti-noise performance and the like, and the linear transformation method also has poor anti-noise performance and affects the precision of the data processing of the modulation polarizer.
