Spatial inhomogeneity of the phase retardation in the birefringent plates
of LiNbO3 crystals are measured. The studies are performed with
the imaging polarimeter which utilizes the computer registration and image
processing. The apparatus have been used for the measurements of spatial
distribution of the optical anisotropy parameters characterizing several
single crystals
Key words: Polarimetry, image, birefringence, spatial distribution
