Up: Wedged double Wollaston

4. Conclusions

Single shot polarimetric measurements can be performed using wedged double Wollaston, i.e. a combination of 2 wedges and 2 Wollaston prisms. The WeDoWo devices described in this paper could significantly simplify the implementation of imaging and spectro-polarimetric modes in astronomical multimode focal reducers.
