Polarization Experiment
A laser beam passes throughtwo polarizers to a Light Sensor.
Polarization of Light Experiment
A three-polarizer system can be produced using the fact that the laser is polarized. The data (red trace) at left shows that there are four oscillations per full rotation for a three-polarizer system.
Polarization of Light Experiment
As the polarizer is rotated, the intensity of the light varies as the square of the cosine of the angle between the two polarizers.
