Hello,
I would like to plot the polarization state of a two-dimensional vector
field (linear, circular or generally elliptic), similarly to that seen on
this ZEMAX plot:
http://www.zemax.com/UserFiles/Image/UI/pol_pupil.gif
It looks like some kind of enhanced quiver plot: a small line with arrows at
both ends points out the local direction of linear polarization, while a
directed ellipse with a given orientation of its axes depicts local
elliptical polarization state (which becomes a circle for circular
polarization).
I am a novice matplotlib user, please give me some advice on how to start
with implementing such a plot (what to read, API examples to look at etc.)
Thanks,
Kornel JAHN
