End-to-end design framework for compressed on-chip pixel-wise spectro-polarimeters
T. A. Stockmans, F. Snik, J. M. Smit +4
Modern detector manufacturing allows spectral and polarimetric filters to be directly integrated on top of separate detector pixels. This enables the creation of CubeSat-sized spec…
