Difference between Conoscopic interference pattern and Waveplate

Conoscopic interference pattern vs. Waveplate

A conoscopic interference pattern or interference figure is a pattern of birefringent colours crossed by dark bands (or isogyres), which can be produced using a geological petrographic microscope for the purposes of mineral identification and investigation of mineral optical and chemical properties. A waveplate or retarder is an optical device that alters the polarization state of a light wave travelling through it.

Similarities between Conoscopic interference pattern and Waveplate

Conoscopic interference pattern and Waveplate have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Birefringence, Index ellipsoid, Mineral, Optic axis of a crystal, Optical mineralogy, Petrographic microscope, Polarization (waves), Refractive index, Thin section.

Birefringence

Birefringence is the optical property of a material having a refractive index that depends on the polarization and propagation direction of light.

Index ellipsoid

In optics, an index ellipsoid is a diagram of an ellipsoid that depicts the orientation and relative magnitude of refractive indices in a crystal.

Optic axis of a crystal

An optic axis of a crystal is a direction in which a ray of transmitted light suffers no birefringence (double refraction).

Polarization (waves)

Polarization (also polarisation) is a property applying to transverse waves that specifies the geometrical orientation of the oscillations.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Thin section

In optical mineralogy and petrography, a thin section (or petrographic thin section) is a laboratory preparation of a rock, mineral, soil, pottery, bones, or even metal sample for use with a polarizing petrographic microscope, electron microscope and electron microprobe.
