Linear
Polarizers
XP42 Linear polariser has been developed
as a direct equivalent to HN22, HN32 and HN38
polarisers.
Un-polarized light is a complex mixture
of random wavefronts transverse to the line of
travel. Linear polarizing filters selectively
absorb light vibrations in certain planes. When
light is passes though a linear polarizer its
vibrations are confined to a single linear
plane.

The linearly polarized light can then be used in
application such as:
|
Continuously variable
density of light. |
|
|
|
Optical instrumentation
such as microscopes. |
|
|
|
Studio lighting and
photography. |
|
|
|
Photo elastic stress
analysis. |

XP42 is the idea replacement material for the
old Polaroid material HN22, HN32, HN38s and
HN42.
Linearly polarised light can be used in
applications such as:
Continuously variable density light filters
Optical instrumentation such as microscopes
Studio lighting and photography
3d projection and glasses
