FIG. 3.
(a) Schematic of a THz polarimetry setup. (b) Projections of the electric field leading to the measured signal . When a linearly-polarized THz radiation, with an electric-field amplitude , is sent through the DSO crystal oriented at 45° with respect to the x-axis, the transmitted electric field first projects along the polarizer direction (gray, double-sided arrow P) and then along the analyzer direction (gray, double-sided arrow A). is the rotation angle of the polarizer with respect to the x-axis. The resulting electric field amplitude is given by . (c) Simulated amplitude, , for the circularly-polarized (CP) light, linearly-polarized (LP) light along y-axis and elliptically polarized light ().
