Encapsulation shape with non-rotational symmetry designed for extraction of polarized light from unpolarized sources.

چکیده
A non-rotationally symmetric encapsulation shape - which takes advantage of the low reflection coefficient for transverse magnetic polarized light near Brewster's angle - designed to enhance extraction of a particular desired linear polarization from an unpolarized source is reported. The algorithm for optimization of the shape is described. Numerical ray-tracing simulations of the encapsulation shape are performed and predict an integrated enhancement of 8.3% in the ratio of desired polarization to undesired polarization when the refractive index of the encapsulant is 1.5. Experimental measurements of fabricated encapsulant shapes agree well with numerical predictions.

The predictions of the theory of light propagation in weakly absorbing anisotropic minerals are tested against systematic measurements of the infrared absorbance spectra of calcite, olivine, and topaz oriented in both principal and random sections, using both polarized and unpolarized light. We show that if the linear polarized maximum absorbance is smaller than ~0.3, or if the ratio of maximum...

NLO procedure of the SIDIS data analysis with respect to light sea quark polarized distributions. Abstract For solution of the problem with the light quark polarized sea symmetry, it is proposed a theoretical procedure allowing the direct extraction from the SIDIS data of the first moment difference of the light sea quark polarized distributions in the next to leading (NLO) QCD order. The valid...

For neutrino scattering from polarized electron, the weak interaction term in the cross section is significantly suppressed by the polarized term. The magnetic moment term does not receive any correction from the electron polarization. Hence, the study of the magnetic moment of neutrinos through scattering from the polarized electron leads to a stronger bound on the neutrino magnetic moment com...

Ecological photopollution created by artificial night lighting can alter animal behavior and lead to population declines and biodiversity loss. Polarized light pollution is a second type of photopollution that triggers water-seeking insects to ovisposit on smooth and dark man-made objects, because they simulate the polarization signatures of natural water bodies. We document a case study of the...
