Hi Folks,
I have a general question. What happens to unpolarized light once it's reflected from a polarizer?
My best guess is that it's polarized with opposite parity relative to the transmitted light with intensity varying as a function of angle of incidence.
I think my answer applies to any polarizer (linear or circular). If you have a reference that addresses effects upon reflection from a polarizer, I'd be glad to read more. Thanks.
