title: Nonnormal Incidence in Field Induced Biaxial KDP.
abstract: The effect on the state of polarization of light incident nonnormally onto KDP in the biaxial state is described. The retardation and preferred planes of vibration are calculated as functions of the incident angles. These results are applied to an optical system where the KDP is used as a polarization rotator. The intensity of the light emerging from the optical system indicates the angular limits of the crystal. The computed results are compared with experimentally measured values.
