Difference between Pockels effect and Polarization (waves)

Pockels effect vs. Polarization (waves)

The Pockels effect (after Friedrich Carl Alwin Pockels who studied the effect in 1893), or Pockels electro-optic effect, changes or produces birefringence in an optical medium induced by an electric field. Polarization (also polarisation) is a property applying to transverse waves that specifies the geometrical orientation of the oscillations.

Similarities between Pockels effect and Polarization (waves)

Pockels effect and Polarization (waves) have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Birefringence, Electric field, Intensity (physics), Kerr effect, Laser, Optical fiber, Optical rotation, Photon, Polarization (waves), Waveplate.

Birefringence

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

Intensity (physics)

In physics, intensity is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy.
