The Polarization node adds an externally generated polarization 
Pi, which contributes to the total polarization
 
    As indicated above, each Polarization node adds a contribution to the total polarization. For the bidirectional formulation a polarization should be input for each wave and the polarization contribution is the sum of the two waves’ polarizations
 
    Enter the components (x, 
y, and 
z for 3D components for example) of the 
Polarization, first wave Pi1 (SI unit: C/m
2) and, for the bidirectional formulation, the 
Polarization, second wave Pi2 (SI unit: C/m
2).
