Abstract

The present invention relates to a polarimetric (PT) measurement device for anisotropic quantities of a medium (M), comprising a spectrally structured light source (SSS) delivering a series of pulses with reference spectral grooves, spectral polarization coding means (MPG) configured to spectrally polarize each of the reference pulses delivered by the light source with a measurement phase delay identical to the reference phase delay, a light detector (D) configured to capture the light intensity reflected by the medium (M) for each of the reference pulses delivered by the light source, and a measurement unit configured to determine the anisotropic quantities of the medium (M) from the images captured by the detector.
