This plate is made in two half A (Fig. 601) being of glass, the planeof polarisation for this half is unchanged, andis shown by the arrow pv The half B consistsof a crystalline plate of such thickness that theplane of polarisation of the light in passingthrough it is rotated through such an anglethat it assumes the position indicated by the
