Isotropic and Anisotropic
Isotropic
- Crystal systems
- Cubic
- Amorphous
- Non-directional optical properties
- behaves the same in any direction
- Diamonds
- Spinel
- Garnet
- Fluorite
- Singly refractive
- Crystal systems
Anisotropic
- Crystal systems
- Hexagonal
- Tetragonal
- Trigonal
- Triclinic
- Monoclinic
- Orthombric
- Light enters anisotropic material
- Light is forced into two seperate rays
- Light travels at right angles to eachother + at different speeds
- Light that has been made into 'tidy' rays of light = Polarized light
- Polarized light
- Light has billions of light waves
- No order to these light waves = Non-polarized light
- Light has billions of light waves
- Polarized light
- Light that has been made into 'tidy' rays of light = Polarized light
- Light travels at right angles to eachother + at different speeds
- Light is forced into two seperate rays
