Faraday rotator — A Faraday rotator is an optical device that rotates the polarization of light due to the Faraday effect, which in turn is based on a magneto optic effect.The Faraday rotator works because one polarization of the input light is in ferromagnetic… … Wikipedia
Optical rotation — (optical activity) is the turning of the plane of linearly polarized light about the direction of motion as the light travels through certain materials. It occurs in solutions of chiral molecules such as sucrose (sugar), solids with rotated… … Wikipedia
Wave plate — A half wave plate. Linearly polarized light entering a wave plate can be resolved into two waves, parallel (shown as green) and perpendicular (blue) to the optical axis of the wave plate. In the plate, the parallel wave propagates slightly slower … Wikipedia
Optical isolator — This article is about the optical component. For the optoelectronic component, see Opto isolator. An optical isolator, or optical diode, is an optical component which allows the transmission of light in only one direction. It is typically used to … Wikipedia
Optical tweezers — (originally called single beam gradient force trap ) are scientific instruments that use a highly focused laser beam to provide an attractive or repulsive force (typically on the order of piconewtons), depending on the refractive index mismatch… … Wikipedia
Faraday effect — In physics, the Faraday effect or Faraday rotation is a magneto optical phenomenon, or an interaction between light and a magnetic field in a dielectric material. The rotation of the plane of polarization is proportional to the intensity of the… … Wikipedia
Low-noise block converter — A low noise block converter (LNB, for low noise block, or sometimes LNC, for low noise converter) is the (receiving, or downlink) antenna of what is commonly called the parabolic (actually paraboloid) satellite dish commonly used for satellite TV … Wikipedia
Metamaterial — Negative index metamaterial array configuration, which was constructed of copper split ring resonators and wires mounted on interlocking sheets of fiberglass circuit board. The total array consists of 3 by 20×20 unit cells with overall dimensions … Wikipedia
Magneto-optic effect — A magneto optic effect is any one of a number of phenomena in which an electromagnetic wave propagates through a medium that has been altered by the presence of a quasistatic magnetic field. In such a material, which is also called gyrotropic or… … Wikipedia
