  • Patent number: 11967116
    Abstract: A method for characterizing polarization image information and a method for computing characterization parameters are provided. The method includes: obtaining n polarized subimages of a polarization imaging target, wherein each polarized subimage corresponds to a different polarization angle and n?3; and computing a parameter matrix [ILP (x, y) INLP(x, y) ?(x, y)] of a polarization cosine characterization equation of all pixel points of the polarization imaging target according to all polarized subimages and the polarization cosine characterization equation of the polarization imaging target. The disclosure obtains a maximum polarization intensity image and a minimum polarization intensity image through computing multiple polarization intensity images, which improves the accuracy of polarization imaging, and the degree of accuracy is much higher than macroscopic accuracy.

  • Patent number: 5812631
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing the monolithic capillary X-ray lens, comprising the steps of Drawing a hollow glass raw-tube into monocapillaries in a heating furnace by a drawing tower; Stacking monocapillaries into a symmetric mould to form a multibundle; Feeding the multibundle into the heating furnace to be heated at uniform speed or variable speed; Drawing the multibundle by a drawing tower at uniform speed and variable speed to form a first integrated lens billet; Cutting the monolithic lens billet into desired shape according to usage to form said first monolithic capillary X-ray lens. A monolithic capillary X-ray lens produced by using said method comprises a plurality of X-ray channels passing from one end through another end, and is a single glass solid formed by melting together the walls themselves of said X-ray channels.
