Stokes Parameters Computation#
This example demonstrates the computation and visualization of the Stokes parameters using PyMieSim.

from PyMieSim import (
ureg,
Sphere,
Gaussian,
PolarizationState,
Simulation,
)
polarization_state = PolarizationState(angle=0 * ureg.degree)
source = Gaussian(
wavelength=750 * ureg.nanometer,
polarization=polarization_state,
optical_power=1 * ureg.watt,
numerical_aperture=0.3,
)
scatterer = Sphere(
diameter=600 * ureg.nanometer,
medium=1.0,
material=1.4,
)
setup = Simulation(
scatterer=scatterer,
source=source,
)
stokes = setup.get_representation("stokes", sampling=100)
figure = stokes.plot()
