POLARIMETERS :: APPLICATIONS :: Materials Characterization


Intrinsic qualities of materials have an effect on the way light interacts with them, whether in transmission or reflection.  The polarization state of light passing through a transparent material is transformed.
Stress, defects, reflectivity, polarization mode dispersion and polarization loss are all qualities that can be determined by measuring the polarization state of light after passing through a material.

The dual PEM Stokes Polarimeter is uniquely designed to capture the polarization state of light coming out of materials. The large acceptance angle, large wavelength range, fast modulation time, and world-class sensitivity make it ideal for such applications.
