Introduction

The PASCO Polarizing Sheets are synthetic linear

polarizing filters that possess special properties for

selectively absorbing light vibrations in certain planes.

When unpolarized light which is a complex mixture of

vibrations lying in all possible directions transverse to

the line of travel is passed through a linear polarizer,

its vibrations become confined to a single linear plane

and the light is considered "polarized" (See Figure 1).

This linearly polarized light can be modified to sup-

press unwanted reflections and to eliminate glare for a

variety of applications.

These neutral linear polarizers represent the best

balance between transmission and extinction for

general use. Extinction transmission is approximately

.005%. Typical applications include variable density

filter systems, photoelastic stress analysis and other

applications where light modulation is necessary. By

using two polarizing sheets, experiments with parallel

and crossed transmittance can be performed (see

Figure 2).
