The New Polarizer produces the compensation layer in the form of direct coating, rather than laminated film, on the surface. Neutrons first pass through the neutron spin polarizer (P), second the polarized target (T), third the neutron spin analyzer (A), and then are registered by the detector (D). When light that has experienced such retardation is viewed by a polarizer oriented at 90 [degrees] to the original plane of light polarization, the two components of the original light beam interfere with one another. |
