| birefringence |
is a property of light that is created by an anisotropic structure in which the optical properties are different for each polarization. A wire-grid polarizer is a good example of a birefringent structure in which the optical properties in the two polarizations are very different, one direction being metallic and the other direction dielectric in nature. Birefringence is typically used to create waveplates or similar devices.

| birefringence |
A material is birefringent if the index of refraction differs for incident electromagnetic waves with different polarizations. Examples of birefringent media include calcite (CaCO 3 ), quartz (SiO 2 ), and ice (H 2 O).

| birefringence |
The phenomenon of double refraction of light wavefronts in a transparent, molecularly ordered material produced by the existence or orientation-dependent differences in refractive index. The term birefringence also commonly refers to the refractive index difference experienced by a transmitted wave through such a material. ...

| birefringence |
The difference in refractive index between the slow axis and the fast axis of a non-circularly symmetric optical fiber. For commercial grade transmission fiber birefringence is normally negligibly small. In polarization maintaining fiber, birefringence is maximized. It can be calculated as Birefringence (B) = | Slow axis index (n x ) ?Fast axis index (n y ) |
