  2. Polarizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizer

    For a stack of 10 plates (20 reflections), about 3% (= (1 − 0.16) 20) of the s-polarized light is transmitted. The reflected beam, while fully polarized, is spread out and may not be very useful. A more useful polarized beam can be obtained by tilting the pile of plates at a steeper angle to the incident beam.

    CR-39 is the most common plastic lens, due to low weight, high scratch resistance, and low transparency for ultraviolet and infrared radiation. SR-91 is a proprietary material that was introduced by Kaenon Polarized in 2001. Kaenon's lens formulation was the first non-polycarbonate material to pass the high-mass impact ANSI Z.87.1 testing.

  4. Jones calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_calculus

    A phase retarder is an optical element that produces a phase difference between two orthogonal polarization components of a monochromatic polarized beam of light. [3] Mathematically, using kets to represent Jones vectors, this means that the action of a phase retarder is to transform light with polarization

  5. Optical rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation

    Optical rotation, also known as polarization rotation or circular birefringence, is the rotation of the orientation of the plane of polarization about the optical axis of linearly polarized light as it travels through certain materials.

    The goal of the training is for the user to learn to look at the test object in such a way that the Haidinger's brush overlaps the test object (and the viewer is thus now looking at it with their fovea). The reason for such training is that the healthy fovea is far greater in its resolving power than any other part of the retina.
