Abstract

Plane polarized electromagnetic waves directed through a microwave system consisting of a polarizer, magnetized ferrite plate, focusing lens, and analyzer produce interference patterns. These patterns are defined analytically by using isochromatic surfaces. A biasing magnetic field for the ferrite plate can control its electromagnetic propagation characteristics and thereby vary the interference patterns. A scientific instrument that uses birefringent interference phenomena is a polarizing interferometer. Variable phase difference, angular splitting, and interference are explained for interferometers with Wollaston prisms made of transversely magnetized ferrite.
