This TikZ code sketches the light behavior during its travel in a polarizing
petrographic microscope when a birefringent crystal thin section is inserted
between the polarizing devices.
The goal was to correctly show the vectorial relationships between light
electric fields during its travel through the first polaroid, the mineral
section and the second polaroid.
