Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

General expressions for the phases of the two light waves passing through a crystal plate in the normal direction are developed for arbitrary directions of the optic axis of a monoaxial crystal and of the electric vector of the modulating, linearly polarized superhigh frequency wave. The expressions obtained permit one to describe in general form the amplitude, polarization, and phase modulations of light by electrooptical modulators.
