“…Given the similarity of our phase modulation system to the systems described by Koemamn and Janeschitz-Kriegl, 4) Fratlini and Fuller, 5) and Kannan and Kornfield, 7) we used the same mathematical tools to describe the system: Stokes vectors to describe the light polarization states and Mueller matrices to describe the optical components. The meaning of each element in the Stokes vectors and Mueller matrices have been explained in detail by Fuller 11) and Collett.…”

This paper introduces a technique for precisely measuring the vertical birefringence of an optical polymer film. Analytical equations are derived to relate the phase retardation to the optical film birefringence. In the measurement, we first measure the in-plane birefringence of the film and locate the principal axes of refractive index ellipsoid. The film is then rotated with its normal at an angle to the incident light wave vector. The vertical birefringence is calculated from the retardations measured at several angles. Using the procedure, the vertical birefringence can be measured to a precision of 0.2 ×10-3.

“…Phase modulation techniques have been established to accurately measure birefringence at levels down to 10 À8 (ref. 4). Frattini and Fuller 5) used the phase modulation technique to simultaneously measure the birefringence and the orientation of the principal axes of the refractive ellipsoid.…”

“…G. Fuller, of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University has recently carried out some measurements of wave speeds using a method of his own which is based on a phase-modulated birefringence technique (see [4] and [5] [2]. Fullers method works for liquids which exhibit optically anisotropic properties under shear.…”

Shear-wave speeds and elastic moduli for different liquids Part 3. Experiments-update

Abstract:Tables of values of shear-wave speeds, shear moduli and relaxation times for 18 new liquids are presented, supplementing the tables for 51 liquids given in Part 2. A brief discussion of errors and analysis of the oscilloscope traces is presented. The relation of the effective moduli measured on the wave-speed meter to independent measurements using phase-modulated birefringence and delayed die swell is discussed. A method of measuring wave speeds and rigidities for sheared media is proposed.
