Eigenview on Jones matrix models of homogeneous anisotropic media

The polarization of light when it passes through optical medium can change as a result of change in the amplitude (dichroism) or phase shift (birefringence) of the electric vector. The anisotropic properties of media can be determined from these two optical effects. Our main concern here is to re...
