Function File: V = stokes_lpminus45()
Function File: V = stokes_lpminus45(p)

Return the Stokes vector for light with linear polarization at -45 degrees.

  • - p is the intensity of the light, if not given or set to [] the default value 1 is used.

Argument p can be passed as a scalar or as a matrix or as a cell array. In the two latter cases, a cell array V of Stokes vectors of the same size is returned.
