| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study is observation of the optical birefringence of imaging system as a function of temperature of several optical crystals. In CaF2, we expect no birefringence at 20-500 K but the artifact signals derived from optical windows of cryostat were observed. We developed that the intrinsic signals were obtained subtracting from the artifact ones. As a result, we can observed low retardation much rather than the conventional method. Simultaneously, the temperature dependence of azimuth angles were observed.
On the other hand, to observe the retardation lager than half of the wave length (the theoretical limit), we observed the three kinds of wave length (523nm, 543 nm, 575 nm) at the same time, and then the composite photograph can shows the large retardation imaging data beyond the theoretical limit.
