Line 12: Circular polarization occurs when the two orthogonal electric field component vectors are of equal magnitude and are out of phase by exactly 90°, or one-quarter wavelength. == ~~General description~~Characteristics == {{multiple image \| direction = vertical \| footer = Right-handed/clockwise circularly polarized light displayed with and without the use of components. This would be considered left-handed/counterclockwise circularly polarized if defined from the point of view of the source rather than the receiver~~. Refer to the below [[#Left.2Fright handedness conventions\|convention section]].<ref name=conventions/>~~ \| footer_align = left \| width = 440
