Conoscopic Patterns for Optically Uniaxial Gyrotropic Crystals in the Vicinity of Isotropic Point

Optics 2007-08-31 v1

Abstract

We have presented computer simulations of conoscopic patterns occurring in optically uniaxial gyrotropic crystals in the vicinity of isotropic point for a number of sets of crystal parameters and orientations. The appearance of special directions characterized by equalization of linear and circular birefringences has been revealed.
