                                2. Light enters anisotropic material
                                  1. Light is forced into two seperate rays
                                    1. Light travels at right angles to eachother + at different speeds
                                      1. Light that has been made into 'tidy' rays of light = Polarized light
                                        1. Polarized light
                                          1. Light has billions of light waves
                                            1. No order to these light waves = Non-polarized light
