Brewster Angle Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

Calculate polarization angle using this simple brewster angle calculation tool. In optics, Brewster 's angle (also known as the polarization angle) is an angle of incidence at which light with a particular polarization is perfectly transmitted through a transparent dielectric surface, with no reflection. When unpolarized light is incident at this angle, the light that is reflected from the surface is therefore perfectly polarized.

Polarization Angle Calculation

degrees

Formula:

θb = tan-1(n2 / n1)

where,
n1 - is the refractive index of the initial medium through which the light propagates
n2 - is the index of the other medium
θb - brewster's angle
