Слайд 12Birefrengence
Interference pattern due to different refractive indices
Слайд 13Light as Plane Waves
Sinusoidal plane waves very
good approximation.
Very useful for characterizing
polarization.
Polarized Wave: Has only one preferred orientation.
Un-polarized Wave: Has no preferred orientation.
or has all orientations.
Partially polarized wave: Has preferred orientation but
has energy in other orientations as well.
Слайд 14Classification of Polarization
Linear : Two orthogonal plane waves with same phase but
possibly different amplitudes.
Circular: Two orthogonal plane waves with 90 deg phase
shift but same amplitudes.
Elliptical: Possibly any degree phase shift with
different amplitudes.
Слайд 19Polarizer Puzzle
If crossed polarizers block all light, why does putting a third
polarizer at 45° between them result in some transmission of light?

Intensity = Const . (Amplitude)^2
