birefringence
This term is a specialized technical descriptor used primarily in physics, optics, and mineralogy. It describes a specific physical phenomenon where a material lacks optical isotropy, meaning light travels through it at different speeds depending on its polarization. This is most commonly associated with crystals like calcite.
Because it refers to a specific physical property of matter, the word is used as an uncountable noun. It describes a state or characteristic of a material rather than a discrete object that can be counted.
Meanings
Examples
Calcite is a classic example of a mineral that exhibits strong birefringence.
The researcher measured the birefringence of the polymer film using a polariscope.
Look at how the image splits because of the birefringence in this crystal.
Stress-induced birefringence can be used to identify weak points in glass components.
I wonder if this specific liquid crystal shows any significant birefringence.
The optical system relies on the birefringence of the wave plate to shift the phase.
Birefringence occurs when light travels at different speeds depending on its polarization.
Birefringence occurs when light travels at different speeds depending on its polarization.
We can detect internal strain in the material by observing its birefringence.
