Here, we propose a paradigm shift where deep neural network assisted polarimeters based on disordered photonic structures perform high quality polarimetric measurements while completely removing the need for specially designed polarization analyzers, demonstrating how disordered photonic structures fabricated without the use of any nanolithography techniques can enable accurate analysis of optical signals. We implement this concept with disorder- engineered nano-scatterers that allow for analyzing varying degrees of disorder and cellophane film that demonstrate the cost-saving potential of the concept. We demonstrate polarimetric performances, calibrated using deep neural networks, that are comparable to commercial polarimeters, does not require prior knowledge of the input wavelength and show a high degree of mechanical stability.203-211eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSkautun (rafsegulfræði)Vélrænt námPolarimetryPolarization selective devicesNanophotonicsNanótækniDeep neural networksMachine learninginfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleACS Photonics10.1021/acsphotonics.9b01420
