Abstract:

The principle of the multi-angle polarimeter was introduced as well as its opto-mechanical system. The optical system of multi-angle polarimeter was designed based on principle of the instrument. For assurance of polarimetric precision and optical layout requirements, opto-mechanical design of multi-angle polarimeter were accomplished carefully, especially the parallelism of optic axis and the consistency of field of view.

Key words: multi-angle polarimeter, opto-mechanical design, polarization
