When a beam of light is passed through a polarizer, it is polarized in a certain direction, say the x-direction. So, the irradiance or the energy of the initial beam is now reduced. The y-direction electric field could not pass through.
So, where has the y-direction electric field gone, which carries some of the energy of the initial beam?
