Abstract

A theoretical analysis is made of a polarization calorimetric method for the determination of weak absorption in optical materials. Several variants of the method are considered and the optimal conditions for its application are identified. The sensitivity of the method is ~1 dB/km for a sample 1 cm thick. It is shown that the method can be used to determine absorption in optically anisotropic materials.
