SPECIFICATION

55932 Malus Law Apparatus dedicated to elucidate students to understand the wave nature of light. LED is used as a source of unpolarized light. With the help of this apparatus the basic law of polarization, Brewster's law and Malus law can be verified. Polarization can be studied by direct vision as well as by reading the variation of intensity through a digital ammeter connected across a photo detector.

The verification of Malus law can be done in two different ways using two coaxial polarized and a combination of glass plate and Polaroid. All the above experiments can also be performed using unpolarized laser as the source of light.

Features

  1. Study of Polarization of light by reflection and thus verify Brewster's law
  2. Study and verify Malus law using a plain glass plate and a Polaroid
  3. Study and verify Malus law using two Polaroids
