In linear polarization of light, light is transformed from unpolarized light into linear polarized light.
The term “Linear Polarization” was coined by Augustin-Jean Fresnel in the year 1822.
Unpolarized Light: In unpolarized light, light wave vibrates in all possible directions.
Polarizer: A polarizer is an Optical fiber that passes only specific polarization of light, and blocks the rest of other polarization of light.
Polarized Light: In polarized light, light wave vibrates in a single plane.
Analyzer: An analyzer is a device to check the light is polarized or not.
