The Electrodynamic Basis of Dichroism-Mediated Polarization Perception
Gary P. Misson, Dusan Sarenac, Dmitry. A. Pushin +1
Humans see the polarization of light through entoptic percepts arising from the macula's Henle fiber layer, where xanthophyll pigments absorb preferentially across the radiating fi…
A unified dielectric-tensor model of macular form birefringence and dichroism
Gary P. Misson, Dusan Sarenac, Dmitry. A. Pushin +1
Optical anisotropy of the Henle fiber layer (HFL) underlies two macular polarization phenomena, form birefringence (the macular cross) and dichroism (Haidinger's brushes), which ha…
Topological Expansion of Boehm's Brushes via Structured Light
Dmitry A. Pushin, Iman Salehi, Amy Chow +10
We report a novel entoptic phenomenon in which the classical two-lobed Boehm's brushes are transformed into a multi-lobed structure by projecting spin-orbit coupled light onto the…
Historical Context, Scientific Context, and Translation of Haidinger's (1844) Discovery of Naked-Eye Visibility of the Polarization of Light
Robert P. O'Shea, Shelby E. Temple, Gary P. Misson +2
In 1844, the Austrian mineralogist Wilhelm von Haidinger reported he could see the polarization of light with the naked eye. It appears as a faint, blurry, transient, yellow hourgl…
