Fig. 15.2 Illustration of home-built retarder view from detector (I/I) direction. Experimental
coordination axis and θ definition are also shown in the figure
Fig. 15.3 (a) A picture of home-built retarder. (b) Birefringence mapping of quartz plate evaluated
by 2D birefringence measurement system (PA-110, Photonic lattice, Inc.). Birefringence was
monitored at 520 nm. The fast axis is observed as x-axis. (c) Retardance profile of the cross section
of birefringence mapping in x- and y-axis
