What is a birefringence?
A birefringence is a splitting of a ray of light into two parallel rays of perpendicular polarization by passage through an optically anistropic medium.
What does the optical term 'birefringence' mean?
Birefringence is when a material is able to refract light in two slightly different directions depending upon the angle of the light coming in. Crystals if calcite can be shown to do this.
What is birefringence?
Everyone who is interested in faceting is likely to have seen the double image that is visible through a crystal of calcite. Most know that this is due to a property called 'birefringence' and that highly birefringent materials are often prone to cleavage and hard to polish.

What is the pressure in a vacuum?
There is no pressure in a vacuum, a vacuum is the absence of anything, there is nothing there to push. Air from a pressurized space that becomes open to a vacuum may push you into the vacuum, but the vacuum itself does nothing as it is literally nothing.
What is the fear of vacuum cleaners called?
vacuum-phobia or vacuum-cleaner-phobia
How do you reduce birefringence in DVD?
first you have to determinate in witch step of the process you gett the birefringence. Usually it is in the molding of layer-0

What is an unusual use for calcite?
cloaking device, they use calcite's birefringence to bend light around objects seen with the human eye.
The mineral calcite contains calcium carbon and oxygen Calcite is an example of a or an?
Calcite is a natural calcium carbonate - an example of birefringence.
How do you determine the birefringence of any minerals?
by rubbing the mineral on a rough hard surface
Why are vacuum flasks called vacuum flasks?

What has the author Evaristo Riande written?
Evaristo Riande has written: 'Dipole moments and birefringence of polymers' -- subject(s): Dipole moments, Double Refraction, Electric properties, Optical properties, Polymers
Why are vacuum bottle called vacuum bottle?
Because it has a vacuum.
Vaccum or vacuum?
It is vacuum
Is there air in a vacuum?
A Vacuum is the absence of air. So no, there is no air in a vacuum.
