    The document describes how to determine the Brewster angle using a laser and glass slice. A laser is directed at a rotating glass slice and the incident angle is varied. For transverse magnetic (TM) polarized light, there is no reflection when the incident angle equals the Brewster angle, while transverse electric (TE) polarized light always experiences reflection regardless of the incident angle.

    Brewster Angle

    Setup:

    Laser generator

    Procedure: Rotate the glass slice to change the incident angle. For TM incident wave, there is no reection when the incident angle is equal to Brewster angle. For TE incident wave, there always is reection no matter what is the incident angle.
