Abstract

The anomalous diffraction approximation (ADA) is a convenient tool to model scattering by weakly scattering objects with large size parameters. The simplicity of the ADA makes it suitable to model objects with different geometries. However, this approximation is a scalar theory and does not consider polarization effects, which might be relevant in some scattering problems. We propose a modified version of the ADA that includes polarization effects and use it to simulate the polarimetric response of a microscopic, semitransparent object with complex inner structure. Our simulation is used to assess the performance of a polarimetric microscope under development in our group and determine the suitability of polarimetry for the observation of the inner structure of semitransparent microscopic complex objects made out of isotropic media with no intrinsic birefringence.
