| Summary: | The fundamental conception in physics of the propagation of the electromagnetic wave polarization in matter is newly
understood as the cardinal keyword in free-space quantum communication technology and cosmology in astrophysics.
Interactive visualization of the propagation mechanism of polarized electromagnetism in a medium with its helicity has
accordingly received attention from scientists exploiting the protocol of quantum key distribution (QKD) to guarantee
unconditional security in cryptography communication. We have provided a dynamic polarization platform for presenting
the polarization modes of a transverse electromagnetic wave, converting the state of polarization through the arrangement
of optical elements, using Jones vectors calculations in Methematica. The platform graphically simulates the mechanism of
production and propagation of the polarized waves in a medium while satisfying Maxwell's equations. |
