Abstract

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a novel optical measurement technique for high resolution, high sensitivity 2D and 3D visualization of material inner structure. With the aid of OCT one can analyze a wide range of biological and technical materials in non-contact and non-destructive way. In our research we concentrate on possibilities of using OCT systems for characterization of polarization properties of investigated materials. We present a short review of polarization sensitive OCT topologies and principle of polarization state measurement.
