title: Depolarization and enpolarization dop histograms measured for surface and bulk speckle patterns.
abstract: dop histograms are measured in the off-specular far field speckle of disordered media under polarized and unpolarized illumination. Three surface samples with increasing roughnesses, and three bulk samples with different absorption levels, are investigated. Results show that both rough surfaces and absorbing bulks hold the incident polarization, while transparent bulks allow to depolarize or to enpolarize the incident light. Hence we provide a first experimental evidence of such effects.
