Lecture
Birefringence and Polarization
Description
This lecture covers the phase difference between ordinary and extraordinary rays in a birefringent crystal, the relation between angular frequency and wavelength, and the polarization of light transmitted by a quarter wave plate. It also explains how the direction of polarization of transmitted light changes when the rotation of incident light is reversed.
