Effect of multiple reflections in retardation plates with elliptical birefringence

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The theory of elliptical retardation plates that takes into account a phenomenon of multiple reflections is presented. An analytical form of a transition matrix for a normally incident plane wave is shown. Sample calculations of phase shift introduced by quartz retardation plates and of the output-beam parameters as a function of plate thickness and optical axis orientation are done.
