I was wondering if any of you guys could help me.
Is there any simple way to set up an experiment to calculate the birefringence of a birefringent crystal? I've trudged through papers and the most helpful one was "Measuring birefringence properties using a wave plate and an analyzer" by Stewart R. M. Robertson.
unfortunately, I don't immediately see how to get a value for birefringence from his calculations.
Thanks!
