0 a device that makes light waves move in one direction only, or mainly in one direction, used, for example, in cameras and electronic devices: --
The light is bright enough on its own, without the need for polarisers, colour filters and backlights.
It's possible to create an outdoor-readable Tablet PC by using an appropriate LCD technology coupled with appropriate polarizers and filters.
1 a person or thing that causes something, especially people or their opinions, to divide into two completely opposing groups: --
The polarizer is fixed and the analyzer can be rotated.
The light is first passed through a polarizer, which cuts out half of the light.
However, with the proper application of a circular polarizer and antireflective coatings, the diffuse reflectance can be reduced to less than 0.1%.
With the help of polarizers and photodiodes, this polarization change is measured.
The first is a 28 position wheel containing broad-band and narrow-band filters, and a wire-grid polarizer.
The same is true for small etalons, retarders and polarizers.
These polarizers are also typically designed to tolerate very high beam intensities, such those produced by a laser.
Their front elements do not rotate for the proper operation of some filters, such as circular polarizers.
