We propose a method for extending the space bandwidth (SBW) available for recording an object wave in parallel phase-shifting digital holography using a four-channel polarization-imaging camera. A linear spatial carrier of the reference wave is introduced to an optical setup of parallel four-step phase-shifting interferometry using a commercially available polarization-imaging camera that has four polarization-detection channels. Then a hologram required for parallel two-step phase shifting, which is a technique capable of recording the widest SBW in parallel phase shifting, can be obtained. The effectiveness of the proposed method was numerically and experimentally verified.

A compact common-path off-axis digital holographic imaging method is proposed utilizing polarization-angular-multiplexing for Jones matrix measurement. Our method employs a common-path off-axis configuration to capture multiplexed off-axis interferograms generated by orthogonally polarized object beams and a reference beam on a monochrome CCD camera. The modulation of the fringe direction is achieved by two homemade retro-reflector mirrors, allowing for the retrieval of the Jones matrix distribution of transparent specimens through a matrix-division algorithm.

This paper uses a polarization camera combined with a coding technique to propose a new 3D reconstruction method for polarized ambient light separation. Based on the polarization camera, a specific separation model is established to analyze the relationship between the polarization characteristics of polarized and natural light.

As a natural satellite of the Earth, the moon is a prime target for planetary remote sensing exploration. However, lunar polarization studies are not popular in the planetary science community. Polarimetry of the lunar surface had not been carried out from a spacecraft until the Korean lunar exploration program was initiated.

Existing snapshot color polarization imaging has a complex structure and limited generalizability, which are overcome by the proposed system. In addition, a novel reconstruction algorithm is designed to exploit the complementarity and correlation between the twelve channels in acquired color polarization images for simultaneous super-resolution (SR) imaging and denoising.
