How does one measure the etendue experimentally (when the area of the emitter and the angular distribution is not provided) in order to compare the focusing strength of two LED sources in an optical setup? Thanks!

Thanks so much for the help Claude! I will try using the polarizer method which you suggested.

I am working with a Laser Diode and I need to observe the intensity of the diode in TE and TM polarizations. the Diode is polarized in the horizontal axis (linear polarization). Is it sufficient to use a half wave plate and rotate it by 90 degrees to observe TE and TM modes? Also, what kind...

Bounce!

Hi all! I am a Erasmus Master student in Germany (FSU Jena) and doing my master thesis at Carl Zeiss in the field of Optical Metrology - specifically on surface characterization and scatterometry. I spent the first yr of my masters course at Imperial College, London and doing my second yr in...
