Introduction:
Red axis : X-axis
Green axis : Y-axis
Blue axis : Z-axis
Observe the polarization of a plane electromagnetic wave by adjusting the magnitude and phase of its electric field components.
Press the left mouse button and move the mouse cursor to change the viewpoint, or you can click on the standard view button in the upper right corner.
Press the right mouse button and move the graphic with your mouse.

Parameters:
|Ex|: Amplitude of Ex
|Ey|: Amplitude of Ey
δx: Phase of Ex
δy: Phase of Ey
Ex(t, z) = |Ex|cos(ωt − βz + δx ): x component of E field
Ey(t, z) = |Ey|cos(ωt − βz + δy ): y component of E field
Etotal(t, z) = ex•Ex(t, z) + ey•Ey(t, z): total electric field
