Function File: M = mueller_linpolarizer()

Function File: A = mueller_linpolarizer([m, n, ...])

Function File: A = mueller_linpolarizer(C)

Return the Mueller matrix for an ideal linear polarizer.

• - [m, n, ...] defines the size of the cell array A and therefore the number of linear polarizer matrices returned.
• - C is a cell array defining the size of the returned cell array A, size(A)==size(C). The content of C is of not evaluated in this case.
