About this document
Polarimetry and Refractometry Basics by Sosuke Aizen is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Polarimetry is used to measure the polarization of light after it passes through an optically active substance. An optically active substance can rotate the vibrational plane of polarized light by some angle. This rotation is measured using a polarimeter, which passes monochromatic light through a polarizing crystal, the sample substance, and an analyzing crystal. The specific rotation is calculated using Biot
