Abstract

Jones matrix is a useful method which is widely used in optical research. But there is no existing such matrix for the parallel beam splitting polarizer, because it changes both the direction and polarization of incident light. This document explains and demonstrates how to treat a parallel beam splitting polarizer with matrix method. A block diagonal matrix is designed, in which the top left block is a 3-order transform matrix dealing with the geometrical light propagation, the bottom right block is a 2-order Jones matrix dealing with the polarization. As an application, we use this method to deal with the high efficiency polarizer. The theoretical deduce is coincident with experimental results.
