- Let's talk about polarization of light.

We know what light waves are; they're electromagnetic waves.

So they're made out of electric fields.

And that's not good enough.

We know there's not just electric fields.

That couldn't sustain itself.

There's got to be magnetic fields there, as well, that are changing.

Those are perpendicular, so you can kind of draw them.

It's hard, on something two-dimensional, but you can kind of imagine those looking something like this.

And those magnetic fields would point at a right angle to the electric fields.

But this gets really messy if I try to draw both the electric and magnetic fields at the same time.

So we're going to leave the magnetic fields out.

It's often good enough to just know the direction of the electric field when we focus on the electric field.

So what does polarization mean?

Polarization refers to the fact that, if this light ray was heading straight toward your eye, or a detector, over here, what would you see?

Well, if I draw an axis over here, and this point here, in the middle, this is this line -- so imagine we're looking straight down that line -- and then up and down is up and down, and then left and right, that direction I have the magnetic field, would be this way and that way.

What would my eye see?

Well, my eye's only going to see electric fields that either point up or electric fields that point down.

They might have different values, but I'm only going to see electric fields that point up or down.

Because of that, this light ray is polarized.

So polarized light is light where the electric field is only oscillating in one direction.

Up or down, that's one direction -- vertically.

Or it could be polarized horizontally.

Or it could be polarized diagonally.

But either way, you could have this wave polarized along any direction.

I mean, a light ray like this, if we had it coming in diagonal, this light ray that's oscillating like this, where the electric field oscillates like that, that also polarized.

These are both polarized because there's only one direction that the electric field is oscillating in.

And you might thing, "Pff, how could you ever have "a light ray that's not polarized?" Easy.

Most light that you get is not polarized.

That is to say, light that's coming from the sun, straight from the sun -- typically not polarized.

Light from a lightbulb, an old incandescent light bulb, this thing's hot.

You can get light polarized in any direction, all at once, all overlapping.

So if we draw this case for a light bulb, just a random incandescent light bulb, you might get light, some of the light, hitting you eye, you can get some light that's got that direction, you got light that's got this direction, you got light in all these directions at any given moment.

I mean, you'd have to add these up to get the total, and they might not all be the same value.

But what I'm trying to say is, at any given moment, you don't know what direction the electric field's going to be hitting your eye at from a random source.

It could be in any direction.

So this is not polarized.

This diagram represents light that is not polarized.

At some point, the field might be pointing this way, at some later point it's this way; it's just random.

You never know which way the electric field's going to be pointing.

Whereas these over here, these are polarized.

So how could you polarize this light?

Let's say you wanted light that was polarized.

You were doing an experiment.

You needed polarized light.

Well, that's easy.

You can use what's called a polarizer.

And this is a material that lets light through, but it only lets light through in one orientation, so you're going to have a polarizer that, for instance, only lets through vertically polarized light.

So this is a polarizer.

These are cheap: thin, plastic, configured in a way so that it only lets light through that's vertically polarized.

Any light coming in here that's not vertically polarized gets blocked, or absorbed.

So what that means is, if you used this polarizer and held it in between your eye and this light bulb, you would only get this light.

All the rest of it would get blocked.

Or you could just rotate this thing and imagine a polarizer that only lets through horizontal light.

Now it would only let through light that was this way, and so you would only get this part of the light.

Or you could just orient it at any angle you want and block everything but the certain angle that this polarizer is defined as letting light through.

So you can do this.

And once you hold this up, you get polarized light, light that's only got one orientation.

So that's what polarization means.

But why do we care about polarization?

Well, let me get rid of this for a minute.

You've heard of polarized sunglasses.

So imagine you're standing near water, or maybe you're standing on ice or snow or something reflective.

There's a problem.

Say the sun's out.

It's shining.

It's a beautiful day -- except there's going to be glare.

Let's say you're looking down at something here on the ground.

It's going to get light reflecting off of it from just ...

you know, light's coming in from all direction.

But it also gets this direct light from the sun.

So it gets light from reflected off the clouds and whatever, whatever's nearby, ambient light.

And there's also this direct sunlight.

That's harsh.

If that reflects straight up to your eye, that hurts.

You don't like that.

It blocks our vision.

It's hard to see, it's glare.

We don't want this glare.

So what can we do?

Well, it just so happens that, when light reflects off of a surface, even though the light from the sun is not polarized, once it reflects, it does get polarized or at least partially polarized.

So this surface here, once this light reflects, it's coming in at all orientations.

You got electric field ...

you never know what electric field you're going to get straight from the sun.

And when it reflects, though, you mostly get, upon reflection, the direction of polarization defined by the plane of the surface that it hit.

So because the floor is horizontal, when this light ray hits the ground and reflects, that reflected light gets partially polarized.

This horizontal component of the electric field is going to be more present than the other components.

Maybe not completely.

Sometimes it could be.

It could be completely polarized, but often it's just partially polarized.

But that's pretty cool, because now you know what we can do.

I know how to block this.

We should get some sunglasses.

We put some sunglasses on and we make our glasses so that these are polarized.

And how do we want these polarized?

I want to get rid of the glare.

So what I do is, I make sure my sunglasses only let through vertically polarized light.

Here's some polarizers.

That way, a lot of this glare gets blocked because it does not have a vertical orientation, it has a horizontal orientation.

100

And then we can block it.

101

So that's one good thing that polarization does for us, and understanding it, we can get rid of glare.

102

Also, fishermen like it because, if you're trying to look in the water at fish, you want to see in through the water, you want to see this light from the fish getting to you.

103

You don't want to see the glare off of the sun getting to you.

104

So polarized sunglasses are useful.

105

Also, we can play a trick on our eye, if we really wanted to.

106

You could take one of these, make one eye have a vertical orientation for the polarization, have the other eye with a horizontal ...

107

and you're thinking, "This is stupid.

108

"Why would you do this for?" "This eye's going to get a lot of glare." We wouldn't use these outside, when you're, like, skiing or fishing, but you could play a trick on your eyes if you went to the movies and you went and watched a movie.

109

Well, the reason our eyes see 3D is because they're spaced a little bit apart.

110

They each get a different, slightly different image.

111

That makes us see in 3D.

112

We can play the same trick on our eye if we have the polarization like this.

113

If light, if some of the light from the movie theater screen is coming in with one polarization, and the other light's coming in with the other polarization, we can send two different images to our eyes at the same time.

114

If you took these off, it'd look like garbage because you'd be getting both of these slightly different images, it'd look all blurry.

115

And it does.

116

If you take off your 3D glasses and look at a 3D movie, looks terrible, because now both eyes are getting both images.

117

But if you put your glasses back on, now this eye only gets the orientation that it's supposed to get, and this eye only gets the orientation that it's supposed to get, and you get a 3D image.

118

So it's useful in many ways.

119

Let me show you one more thing here.

120

Let's come back here.

121

This light was polarized vertically.

122

So that's called linear polarization.

123

Any time ...

124

Same with these.

125

These are all linear polarization because, just up and down, one linear direction, just diagonal.

126

This is also linear.

127

All of these are linear.

128

You can get circular polarized light.

129

So if we come back to here, we've got our electric field pointing up, like that.

130

Now let's say we sent in another light ray, another light ray that also had a polarization, but not in this direction.

131

Let's say our other light ray had polarization in this direction, so it looks like this, kind of like what our magnetic field would have looked like.

132

But this is a completely different light ray with its own polarization and its own magnetic field.

133

So we send this in.

134

What would happen?

135

Well, at this point, you'd have a electric field that points this way.

136

At this point, you'd have a electric field that points that way.

137

What would your eye see if you were over here?

138

Let's see. If I draw our axis here.

139

All right, when this point right here gets to your eye, what am I going to see?

140

Well, I'm going to have a light ray that's one part of a light ray.

141

One component points up.

142

That's this electric field.

143

One component points left.

144

That's this electric field.

145

So the total, my total electric field, would point this way.

146

I could to the Pythagorean theorem if I wanted to figure out the size of it, but I just want to know the direction for now.

147

And then it gets to here, and look at it: they both have zero.

148

This light ray has zero electric field, this one has zero electric fields.

149

So then it'd just be at zero.

150

Now what happens over here?

151

Well, I've got light.

152

This one points to the right at that point, this pink one, and then this red one would be pointing down.

153

So what would I have at that point?

154

I'd have light that went this way, and it would just be doing this over and over.

155

It would just be ...

156

I'd just have diagonally polarized light.

157

This isn't giving me anything new.

158

You might think this is dumb.

159

Why do this?

160

Why send in two different waves to just get diagonally polarized light?

161

I could have just sent in one wave that was diagonally polarized and got the same thing.

162

The reason is, if you shift this purple wave, this pink wave, by 90 degrees of phase, by pi over two in phase, something magical happens.

163

Let me show you what happens here, if we move this to here.

164

Now we don't just get diagonally linear polarized light.

165

What we're going to get is ...

166

Let me get rid of this.

167

Okay, so we start off with red, right?

168

The red electric field points up, and then this pink wave's electric field is zero at that point.

169

So this is all I have.

170

My total electric field would just be up.

171

I'm going to draw it right here.

172

The green'll be the total.

173

Now I come over to here, and at this point, there's some red electric field that points up, but there's some of this other electric field that points this way.

174

So I'd have a total electric field that would point that way.

175

And then I get over to here, and I'd have all of the electric field from the pink one, none from the red one.

176

It would point all left then.

177

Look what's happening.

178

The polarization of this light, if I shift this, if I'm sitting here, looking with my eye, as my eye receives this light, I'm going to see this light rotate its polarization.

179

The polarization I'm going to notice swings around in a circular pattern.

180

And because of this, we call this circular polarization.

181

So this is another type of polarization, where the actual angle of polarization rotates smoothly as this light ray enters your eye.

182

And you know what?

183

Er, drrr ...

184

All right, actually, I sent you to receive this one first.

185

That makes no sense.

186

You're going to receive the ones closes to you first in this light ray going this way.

187

So you'd actually receive this one first, then that one, then this one, then this one.

188

Because of that, you wouldn't see this going in a counterclockwise way, you'd see this going in a clockwise circularly polarized way.

189

Sorry about that.

190

You might think, "Okay, why?

191

"Why even bother with circular polarization?" Well, I kind of lied earlier.

192

Turns out, in the movie theater example, they don't actually do it like this, typically.

193

Oftentimes in the movie theaters, we don't have just linearly polarized sunglasses.

194

This would be a problem because, when you look at the movie theater screen, and if you were to tilt your head just a little bit ...

195

Think about it.

196

This one's not really going to get the right image anymore.

197

It's going to get some of both.

198

And this one's going to get some of both.

199

It's going to be blurry.

200

Your head would have to be perfectly level the whole time, which might be annoying.

201

So what we do is, instead, we create circular polarized glasses, so that this one would only get one polarization, this one would get the other direction.

202

This way, even if you tilt your head a little bit ...

203

shoot, clockwise is clockwise, counterclockwise is counterclockwise.

204

By using circular polarization for 3D movies, it can make it a little easier on you eyes to see a better 3D image, even if your head's tilted a little bit.
