A new method for complete determination of polarization state in the hard X‐ray region is described. The system consists of a perfect‐crystal phase retarder and a linear polarization analyzer. This method gives not only the amplitude ratio of mutually perpendicular electric vector components and the phase shift between them but also the proportion of unpolarized radiation.
