Abstract
It is shown that Polaroid H-sheet (iodine-doped polyvinyl alcohol) can be used to good effect as a fixed-wavelength polarizer for 33.17 keV X-ray beams. Iodine K-edge dichroic spectra of HN22 and HN38 sheets ar e presented, and the HN22 is used to demonstrate X-ray polarization an alysis and polarization rotation.
