Abstract
Spectrophotometric measurements on optically anisotropic samples are c onsiderably affected by the partial polarization of light in the instr ument. It is shown that by depolarizing the incident beam, more realis tic results are obtained even for strong directional anisotropic mater ials. Two types of depolarizers were investigated.
