Polarization phase reconstruction phase anisotropy in diagnostics of the polycrystalline structure of acrylic glass

Abstract

Algorithms for reconstruction of linear and circular birefringence of optically thin anisotropic акрилового скла layers are presented. The technique of Jones-matrix tomography of polycrystalline acrylic glass layers has been experimentally tested. The coordinate distributions of phase anisotropy of acrylic glass samples with varying degrees of mechanical stress are determined and statistically analyzed. Criteria (statistical moments of 3rd and 4th orders) of differential diagnostics of the presence of mechanical stress were determined.
