Definition: UNIAXIAL |
UNIAXIALAdjective1. Having only one axis; developing along a single line or plane; -- opposed to multiaxial. 2. Having but one optic axis, or line of no double refraction. |
Note: Uniaxial \U`ni*ax"i*al\, adjective. [Uni axial.]. (Websters 1913) |
| Domain | Definition |
Mining | In optical crystallography, those anisotropic crystals having one direction of apparent isotropy, i.e., one optic axis, corresponding to the unique direction of axial symmetry in the hexagonal, trigonal, and tetragonal crystal systems. Uniaxial crystals are positive if their extreme refractive index (extraordinary ray) is less than their axial refractive index (ordinary ray), negative if greater. CF:isotropic;isotropy; anisotropy; biaxial. (references) |
