What you can learn about Linearly, circularly and elliptically polarised light Polarizer Analyser Plane of polarisation Malus' law Double refraction Optical axis Ordinary and extraordinary beam

Principle: Monochromatic light impinges on a mica plate, perpendicularly to its optical axis. If the thickness of the plate is adequate (l/4 plate), a phase shift of 90° occurs between the ordinary and the extraordinary beam when the latter leaves the crystal. The polarisation of exiting light is examined for different angles between the optical axis of the l/4 plate and the direction of polarisation of incident light.

Kerr effect What you can learn about Polarisation of light Double refraction Optical anisotropy Modulation of light Electro-optical modulator

Principle: Monochromatic light, which is polarised vertical impinges on a PLZT element (lead-lanthanum-zirconium-titanium preparation) rotated in its support by 45° against the vertical. An electric field is applied to the PLZT element (Kerr cell) and causes the latter to become double refracting. The phase difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary beams after the PLZT element is recorded as a function of the applied voltage. It is shown that the difference of phase is proportional to the square of the electric field intensity, due to the applied voltage.

Voltage for peaks and minima

Relative light intensity I/I0 after analyser A as a function of the voltage U applied to the Kerr cell and of phase shift between the ordinary and the extraordinary beams.

Tasks: 1. The phase difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary light beam is recorded for different voltages applied to the PLZT element, that is, for different field intensities. The half wavelength voltages U(l/2) must be determined.

3. Superimposing an alternate voltage to the constant electric HV field, the PLZT element is transformed to an electro optical modulator. Its function is demonstrated by means of alternate voltages of variable frequency in the audible range.

2. By plotting the square of the applied voltage against the phase difference between the ordinary and the extraordinary beam, it is shown that the relation between both magnitudes is approximately linear. The Kerr constant is calculated from the slope of the straight line.

Principle: In contrast to normal photography a hologram can store information about the three-dimensionality of an object. To capture the three-dimensionality of an object, the film stores not only the amplitude but also the phase of the light rays. To achieve this, a coherent light beam (laser light) is split into an object and a reference beam by being passed through a beam splitter. These beams interfere in the plane of the holographic film.

Real time procedure I (bending of a plate) What you can learn about Interference Optical path length Refraction index Phase difference

Principle: – In real time procedures, alterations of an object are directly observed. A hologram is recorded under the initial object conditions and remains in exactly the same position (at exactly the same place) where it was located during the image-capture procedure while it is being developed. – The hologram is reconstructed with the reference beam and the object is illuminated with the object beam (both waves are unchanged with respect to the captured image). The light scattered by the object interferes with the reconstructed light wave of the hologram.

Experimental System “Advanced Optics” This experimental system allows many important experiments in

● Geometrical optics ● Wave optics ● Applied optics

● Holography ● Interferometry ● Fourier optics

to be performed. All experiments are supported by corresponding handbooks, which contain detailed descriptions of experimental set-ups and procedures, as well as results of measurements. By use of a base plate and magnetically held adjustment devices, which can be positioned jerkfree, 1 and 2 dimensional measuring set-ups with laser light sources can be quickly and dependably realized. By deflecting the light path, experiments with larger focal lengths can also be carried out on the base plate. The high inherent stiffness and vibration damping of the base plate enables sensitive interferometer arrangements to be set up.

Experimental set up for transmission hologram (LH5 – P1290400)

The practical system enables all important experiments in • Geometric optics • Wave optics (diffraction, interference, polarisation and refraction, Kerr and Faraday effect) • Holography ( white light, transmission and transfer holograms, average time and real time holography) • Interferometry (Michelson, MachZehnder, Fabry-Perot, Sagnac, Twyman-Green interferometer, as well as the insert for producing non-optical phenomena such as e.g. measurement of magnetostrictions). • Fourier optics, diffusion of light, optical Doppler effect and laser Doppler anemometry to be carried out.

With the aid of a base plate and magnetic adhering holders, which can be positioned jolt-free, 1 and 2 dimensional measuring arrangements can be quickly and reliably realised using laser light sources. By folding the light paths experiments with larger focal distances can also be carried out on the working base. The high stiffness and vibration damping of the base plate allows sensitive interferometer arrangements to be set up. The base plate with hooded case 08700.01 is recommended for the use of particularly vibration-sensitive applications, which is accommodated with particular vibration-damping in the bottom of a transport case.

Using this Thermal Image Plate it is possible to see IR laser beams in real time and with high resolution. The conversion plate displays IR laser beams through the use of thermal sensitive phosphors. When illuminated by a long wavelength ultraviolet light (source supplied) these phosphors fluoresce. The intensity of fluorescence decreases with increasing temperature. When an IR laser beam strikes the thermal-sensitive surface, the absorbed energy raises the surface temperature and produces a corresponding thermal image.

Further equipment and components Si-Photodetector with amplifier

08735.00

This silicon photodiode with a built in transconductance amplifier is designed for precision, linear photometric measurements over 6 decades at high interference levels. It works in connection with the control unit 08735.99 . The diode is supplied with a front lens which can be partly covered by a screw-on slit diaphragm for measurements with a higher local resolution. A second diaphragm, that slides onto the first one, can be used to alter the entrance aperture in a variable fashion. Thereby it is possible to measure high light intensities without reaching the saturation level of the amplifier. Spectral range Maximum sensitivity at Band width Diameter of lens aperture Diaphragm slit aperture min. 0.3 mm x 0.3mm
