What Does DCID Stand For?

DCID stands for Dimensionless Circular Intensity Difference

DCID, or Dimensionless Circular Intensity Difference, is a quantitative measure used in optical and photometric studies to assess variations in circular intensity between light sources or surfaces. By normalizing intensity values, DCID allows for a comparative analysis that is independent of absolute intensity levels, facilitating the evaluation of polarization effects and spatial distributions in experimental and applied optics.
