Hello everyone,
I currently need to model the influence of the polarization of 2 sources in non sequential mode in the context on the creation of interferences. Hence, I thought of putting different polarization components after each source in order to see the influence in the contrast of interferences when the rays propagate through the whole system. I used the component “Jones Matrix” so far, but it is more a tool in order to check if the polarization is correctly modify than something which have a real impact on the modification of polarization. I saw a post where it was recommended to use a KDP rectangular volume with a thickness to define in order to have the good polarization. However I didn't really got how to correctly define the thickness in order to have all the polarizing components I need which are a linear polarizer, a quarter wave plate or a half wave plate. To conclude would like to know how to set any polarization in non sequential mode.
Hope it was clear.
Best regards,
Marie Fournier.
