Polarization Overview

Polarizers are optical components designed to filter, modify, or analyze the various polarization states of light. Polarizers are commonly integrated into optical systems to decrease glare or increase contrast, or for measuring changes in magnetic fields, temperature, or chemical interactions.

How Polarizers Work

When this happens, the light is said to be polarized along a certain direction—namely, the direction of the oscillating electric field. One can control the polarization of light by using a polarizer.

How Do Polarizers Work?

These polarizers, when hit with an unpolarized beam of light, change the light into linearly polarized light by blocking or reflecting everything not aligned along the polarization axis.
