We explore effects of light dispersion by a wire-grid polarizer (WGP) in imaging polarimetry. The dispersive characteristics WGP, combined with off-axis scene incidence, cause significant non-uniformity. normalized performance measure contrast due to WGP exceeded 0.84 for transmittance and 0.90 extinction ratio (maximum non-uniformity at 1 0 uniform performance). Dispersion also produces lateral spread the plane, which may induce spectral image misregistration. Without higher-order...
