00 600 700 * U.S. Patent 6,490,043, Kebabian (Aerodyne) Polarimetric Spectral Intensity Modulation (PSIM*) • Single snapshot (dynamic scenes) • Perfect spectral & polarimetric coregistration • Full-Stokes sensitivity • Conventional single-beam optics • Single CCD array • UV-thru-IR feasible Novel configuration instantaneously induces polarization-dependent interference fringes upon the measured intensity spectrum.   Consequently, the full Stokes spectrum can be retrieved from the modulated intensity spectrum based on the fringe patterns.
