Abstract :
The effect of anisotropy on disc delay line beam propagation is examined by means of a paraxial ray analysis. Anisotropic transfer matrices describe the disc´s optical characteristics. The theory is applied to explain different propagation loss experimentally observed on three recirculating patterns on a Y-cut quartz disc delay line.
