Abstract
A birefringence phenomenon, the conversion of the linear polarisation of the photon beam into circular polarisation, was observed. This was achieved by letting the linearly polarised photon beam pass through a 10Â cm thick Silicon single crystal that acted as a “quarter wave plate” (QWP) as suggested by Cabibbo et al.
