| Malus' Law |
|
| If q is the angle between the plane of transmission of the analyzer and the polarizer, then intensity of the transmitted light I is |
| |
 |
| |
 |
| |
| where Io is intensity of light transmitted from polarizer. |
| |
|
| |
| When unpolarised light is incident at polarizing angle ip on an interface separating air from a medium of refractive index m then, |
| |
| m = tan ip |
| |
 |
| |
| When the light is incident at polarizing angle ip, the reflected component along OB and refracted component along OC are mutually perpendicular to each other. |
