Unpolarized light in vacuum is incident onto a sheet of glass with index of refraction n. The reflected and refracted rays are perpendicular to each other. Find the angle of incidence. This angle is called Brewsters angle or the polarizing angle. In this situation, the reflected light is linearly polarized, with its electric field restricted to be perpendicular to the plane containing the rays and the normal.
A light ray travels from vacuum into a slab of material with index of refraction n1 at incident angle θ with respect to the surface. It subsequently passes into a second slab of material with index of refraction n2 before passing back into vacuum again. The surfaces of the different materials are all parallel to one another. As the light exits the second slab, what can be said of the final angle ϕ that the outgoing light makes with the normal? (a) ϕ > θ (b) ϕ < θ (c) ϕ = θ (d) The angle depends on the magnitudes of n1 and n2. (e) The angle depends on the wavelength of the light.

When light reflects off horizontal surfaces some of the vertical components of the electric fields are absorbed while the horizontal components are reflected. In order for a polarizing set of sunglasses to be effective the glasses must be aligned so that it will block the components of the electric fields. horizontal vertical spherical elliptical

The electric field of a polarized light emerged from a polarizer can be expressed as E= Bei(kz-wt)} # – Bei(kz-wt)? Where B is the amplitude of the electric field. (a). Give the propagation direction. (b). Give the plane of oscillation. (c). Show that polarization state of the electric filed is indeed linear. (You may include proof such as polarization angle, phase difference, etc. to support your claims.) (d). The above electric field has passes through a quarter-wave plate (QWP). The fast axis (FA) of the QWP was located at the principal vertical axis, while the slow axis (SA) located along the principal horizontal axis. Determine the polarization state of the light that emerged from the QWP. (e). Given another identical QWP, choose the suitable orientation of the fast and slow axes so that the state of the electric field can be returned to E = Be'lz-u – Be-. (You need to provide explanation for your i(kz-wt)? i(kz-wt)? choice.)
