Abstract: The principles of operation and design of a compact original optical polarization modulator are described. The proposed device can simultaneously and independently induce small changes in the ellipticity and polarization plane direction of a polarized light beam. The use of the modulator for simultaneous detection of low-level linear birefringence and dichroism is presented.
