Function File: V = jones_lphorizontal()
Function File: V = jones_lphorizontal(p)

Return the Jones vector for horizontal linearly polarized light.

  • - p is the amplitude of the electric field, if not given or set to [] the default value 1 is used.

Argument p can be passed as a scalar or as a matrix or as a cell array. In the two latter cases, a cell array V of Jones vectors of the same size is returned.
