Conoscopic figure : a complex consequence of a not so simple phenomenon

Pečar, Maja (avtor), Čepič, Mojca (avtor)

Observation of conoscopic figures through a special microscope is widely used as an experimental method for determination of optical properties of anisotropic materials. The conoscopic figure appears when a divergent light passes through an anisotropic material sandwiched between crossed polarizers. The complex pattern of bright and dark areas appears due to different polarization states of light. The pattern gives information about optical axes and birefringence of the material and allows for deduction of microscopic structures at the origin of such properties. Due to the complexity of the figure, the method is often used following recipes. This contribution presents a series of experiments that provide students with experiences needed for construction and comprehension of optical phenomena that contribute to the complexity of the conoscopic figure.
