Fig. 5: Interdependence of bianisotrop.
From: Direct chiroptical correlation of dissymmetric crystal morphologies
The off-optical axis of (A) L-crystals and (B) R-crystals were analyzed as indicated by the areas enclosed in orange rectangles. Both linear retardance (LR) and circular retardance (CR) images (λ = 550 nm) are shown. Scale bar: 50 µm. The 1D plots are drawn along the path shown in the |LR| and CR images indicated with a black dash line. The vertical red dash-lines at the maximum of the |LR| indicate the changes from maximum to minimum in the CR. C Comparison of intrinsic CB (dashed line growing linearly thickness) versus observable quantity calculated through analytic inversion (solid line) which oscillates between 0 and π radians. D Simulation of CR profile. The optical path length z = \(\frac{x}{2}*\tan \!\theta\).
