Technology Transfer Opportunities in Polarization Instrumentation

In the last years, we have had some proof-of-concept or “product” projects to develop  cutting-edge polarization imaging and measurement solutions. We are currently seeking partners interested in licensing our technologies. While our primary goal is to collaborate with companies for technology transfer, we very much welcome inquiries from end-users who may benefit directly from our instruments.

We have three self-developed polarization devices, each offering unique capabilities not available in commercial systems. Click on the links to get detailed information on each device.

1. Mueller Matrix Microscope

A high-precision imaging system capable of capturing the complete Mueller matrix at microscopic resolution. Ideal for advanced material characterization, biomedical research, and nanostructure analysis.

Key features:

  • Full polarimetric characterization at the microscale

  • Quantitative mapping of birefringence, dichroism, and depolarization

  • Compatible with a wide range of samples, from biological tissues to photonic devices


2. Full-Stokes Polarization Camera

A compact, real-time imaging system that measures all four Stokes parameters (also the last one!) in a single snapshot. Designed for environments where speed and robustness are critical.

Key features:

  • Instantaneous full polarization capture

  • High sensitivity in both natural and controlled lighting

  • Applicable to remote sensing, industrial inspection, and vision enhancement in scattering media


3. Snapshot Generalized Ellipsometer

A novel spectroscopic instrument for instantaneous ellipsometric measurements, enabling full characterization of materials without moving parts or sequential acquisition.

Key features:

  • Measures generalized ellipsometric parameters in a single shot

  • Suitable for dynamic samples and processes, or mapping/imaging optical properties

  • Good spectral compatibility


Partner With Us

Our technologies are the result of years of research in Mueller matrix polarimetry and advanced optical instrumentation. By partnering with us, companies can integrate these unique solutions into their product portfolios with reduced development time and risk. All our technology transfer activities are carried out in collaboration with Fundació Bosch i Gimpera which is the tech transfer office of Universitat de Barcelona.
