SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract of Patents and Patent Application(s)
I. An integrated microgrid imaging polarimeter comprises a
repeating pattern of wiregrid polarizers in a new 2x4 array that
improves image resolution and quality by increasing the spatial
bandwidth available for each Stokes image despite that the new
repeating pattern is larger than prior art 2x2 arrays. An example
embodiment has polarization orientations of the wiregrid polarizers in
each 2x4 array, beginning from an arbitrary top left polarizer of each
array and continuing clockwise, as: 45 degrees; zero degrees; 315
degrees; 90 degrees; zero degrees; 45 degrees; 90 degrees; and 315
degrees. The disclosure includes an analysis showing development of the
new 2x4 array and supporting its improved performance over prior art
2x2 arrays.
Intellectual Property
Microgrid arrangement for integrated imaging polarimeters. The
invention is protected under U.S. Patent No. 9,857,226 B2. Such patent
issued on January 2, 2018.
The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license
unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant
of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or
implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license
agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by
the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated
as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed
license.
(Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR part 404)

Acting Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
