Learning outcomes
The student should know:
Matrix description of the representation of polarized electromagnetic radiation and anisotropic
media. Matrix method for describing the interaction of EM
radiation with media. Matrix models of homogeneous and inhomogeneous anisotropic media. Vector transport equation for longitudinally inhomogeneous media.
The student should be able to:
Analyze the polarization parameters of radiation by their Jones and Stokes vectors. Calculate the transformation matrix for sequences of optical elements. Estimate the values of the parameters of the anisotropy of media by their
polarization matrices.

Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
The course is a continuation of the cycle of courses in applied physics. To successfully master the course, knowledge of the classical sections of general physics (electricity and magnetism, optics), theoretical physics (statistical physics, electrodynamics) and higher mathematics courses (mathematical analysis, linear algebra, differential equations) is necessary.
Course content
The discipline "Polarization Matrix Optics" is an elective discipline for the educational program "Applied Physics and Nanomaterials", which is taught in the 2nd semester for students of the 1st year of the master's degree in the amount of 4 credits (120 hours), including 80 hours of independent work. Special attention is paid to the physical justification of

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures, practical classes, tests, credit, tests, assignments for independent work
Assessment methods and criteria
he academic semester has two content modules. To determine the level of achievement of learning outcomes, assignments for modular work test theoretical knowledge and the ability to apply them to solving specific physical problems. Writing the 1st and 2nd modular tests with a score of at least 20 points for the test is mandatory for admission to the credit. work.
Final assessment (in the form of a test): the form of the test is written-oral. The test exam consists of 3 questions and a task, each item is rated from 0 to 10 points. In total, from 0 to 40 points can be obtained for the test. The condition for achieving a positive assessment for the discipline is to obtain at least 60 points
