Potential solution:Uses of Transparent Semiconductors: FTO and ITO explained

Click For Summary
Transparent semiconductors like Fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) and Indium tin oxide (ITO) offer advantages such as high transparency to visible light and good electrical conductivity, making them ideal for applications in touchscreens, solar cells, and display technologies. FTO is particularly valued for its stability and chemical resistance, while ITO is widely used in flat panel displays due to its excellent conductivity. Both materials play crucial roles in the development of optoelectronic devices, enabling advancements in energy efficiency and functionality. Their unique properties allow for innovative designs in various electronic applications. Understanding these advantages is essential for leveraging transparent semiconductors in modern technology.

Yes. Shouldn't we send it here?
 
I have moved the thread.

Please provide an attempt at a solution to the problem.
 

Thread 'Help needed with Polarisation (Rotated Waveplates)'

(a) The polarisation pattern is elliptical with maximum (1,1) and minimum (-1,-1), and anticlockwise in direction. (b) I know the solution is a quarter-wave plate oriented π/4, and half-wave plate at π/16, but don't understand how to reach there. I've obtained the polarisation vector (cos π/8, isin π/8) so far. I can't find much online guidance or textbook material working through this topic, so I'd appreciate any help I can get. Also, if anyone could let me know where I can get more...
