प्रश्न
Mention the types of optically active crystals with example.
उत्तर
-
Uniaxial crystals:
Crystals like calcite, quartz, tourmaline and ice having only one optic axis are called uniaxial crystals. -
Biaxial crystals:
Crystals like mica, topaz, selenite and aragonite having two optic axes are called biaxial crystals.
