Abstract
The photoelastic behaviour ofkdp crystals with additives like borax,adp, nickel phosphate, manganese phosphate and sodium dihydrogen orthophosphate has been studied as a variable birefringent compensator. The dispersion of the stress birefringence with wavelength was studied for a single orientation.
