Abstract Real-time polarization medium-wave infrared (MIR) optical imaging systems enable the acquisition of infrared and polarization information for a target. At present, real-time polarization MIR devices face the following problems: poor real-time performance, low transmission and high requirements for fabrication and integration. Herein, we aim to improve the performance of real-time polarization imaging systems in the MIR waveband and solve the above-mentioned defects. Therefore, we propose a MIR polarization imaging system to achieve real-time polarization-modulated imaging with high transmission as well as improved performance based on a pixel-wise metasurface micro-polarization array (PMMPA). The PMMPA element comprises several linear polarization (LP) filters with different polarization angles. The optimization results demonstrate that the transmittance of the center field of view for the LP filters is up to 77% at a wavelength of 4.0 μ and an extinction ratio of 88 dB. In addition, a near-diffraction-limited real-time MIR imaging optical system is designed with a field of view of 5° and an F-number of 2. The simulation results show that an MIR polarization imaging system with excellent real-time performance and high transmission is achieved by using the optimized PMMPA element. Therefore, the method is compatible with the available optical system design technologies and provides a way to realize real-time polarization imaging in MIR wavebands.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
