Microwave Polarization: Understanding Light and Wave Properties

Objectives:

  • To study the phenomenon of polarization in a beam of light, using a microwave as a polarizer to alter the polarization generated by a radiation source.

Planning:

Electromagnetic waves, such as light or microwaves, are characterized by the vibration of electric (E) and magnetic (B) fields. These fields are transverse to each other and perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The speed of wave propagation matches the speed of light, which is C = 3×108 m/s (Hecht).
