The observation of right angle Rayleigh scattering from defects in quartz using an argon laser beam which is propagated at 90 degrees to the optic axis is reported. The intensity of the scattered light varies periodically along the axis of the laser beam, which variation is resolved by viewing the scattering regions with a microscope. The visibility of the scattering pattern depends upon both the direction of viewing and the plane of polarization of the incident laser beam in relation to the optic axis. A theory of the scattering patterns for the general case of propagation at an angle theta to the optic axis of an anisotropic medium is given.
报道了使用与光轴成90度传播的氩激光束对石英中的缺陷进行直角瑞利散射的观测。散射光的强度沿激光束轴呈周期性变化，通过用显微镜观察散射区域来解析这种变化。散射图案的可见度取决于观察方向以及入射激光束相对于光轴的偏振平面。给出了在各向异性介质中与光轴成θ角传播的一般情况下散射图案的理论。
