birefringence(Nearly synonymous with double refraction.) Two different real parts of the refractive index for electromagnetic waves, identical except for their states of (orthogonal) polarization. By orthogonal is [..]

birefringenceIn a transparent material, anisotropism of the refractive index, which varies as a function of polarization as well as orientation with respect to the incident ray. Note 1: The term "birefringence" means, literally, "double refraction." Note 2: All crystals except those of cubic lattice structure exhibit some degree of anisotrop [..]

birefringenceIt is a phenomenon in which an incident light beam inputting into a crystal or anisotropic material splits into two light beams of which oscillation is orthogonal each other.

birefringenceAn optical property of all anisotropic crystals (i.e., virtually all drugs) observed as light and dark areas while the sample is rotated on the microscope stage of a polarizing microscope.

birefringenceThe property of nonisotropic media, such as crystals, whereby a single incident beam of Light traverses the medium as two beams, each plane-polarized, the planes being at right angles to each other. ( [..]
