Definition
偏振光 is a physics term for 'polarized light' — light waves that vibrate in a single plane rather than in all directions. You'll encounter it in optics and photography contexts, such as when discussing 3D movies, LCD screens, or polarizing filters (偏振片). It's a technical compound noun, not used in everyday conversation.
