In the experiment on polarisation you have already learned that light is an electromagnetic wave which can be restricted in the direction of its vibration - can be polarised.
Principle
In the experiment on polarisation you have already learned that light is an electromagnetic wave which can be restricted in the direction of its vibration – can be polarised. To do this two linear polarisation filters were used. In this experiment you will learn how light is polarised by birefringence.
Benefits
Tasks
How can light be ‘twisted’? In this experiment you will learn how light is polarised by birefringence.
