The transmission of polarized light through a two-dimensional randomly rough interface between two dielectric media has been much less studied, by any approach, than the reflection of light from such an interface. We have derived a reduced…
High-resolution optical microscopy has transformed biological imaging, yet its resolution and contrast deteriorate with depth due to multiple light scattering. Conventional correction strategies typically approximate the medium as one or a…
