Abstract
The polarized microscope includes a light source configured to generate illumination light, a polarizer configured to interact with the generated illumination light to transmit rectilinear polarized light having a first orientation, an analyzer configured to transmit a component of rectilinear polarized light reflected by a sample, the reflected rectilinear polarized light having a second orientation, an image obtainer configured to obtain an image of the reflected rectilinear polarized light, and an image processor configured to process the obtained image, wherein the image processor is configured to calculate a device integer, obtain a plurality of hysteresis loops for each of regions of interest (ROIs), and calculate a rotation angle of a Kerr rotation of each ROI by using the device integer and the plurality of hysteresis loops.
