Using a novel coordinate system the Jones M‐matrix for arbitrary direction of view is written for a uniaxial crystal. The Jones N‐matrix is then derived and integrated to an approximate Jones M‐matrix for a uniformly twisted nematic crystal. A transmission function for ideal polarizers is then derived from this matrix valid for all angles of incidence. This function reduces to the Gooch & Tarry solution at normal incidence.
