He was to remain associated with Ecole Polytechnique as an examiner all his life. While studying at the Ecole Polytechnique Malus began to undertake original research, writing papers on the path of light through materials of differing refractive indices. After graduating from the Ecole Polytechnique Malus rejoined the army, this time taking part in campaigns on the Rhine in 1797. As an army engineer Malus was ordered to accompany Napoleon's invasion of Egypt in 1798. This did not greatly please him since at the time that he received the order he was stationed in the town of Giessen, as part of the occupying force, and he was about to marry the daughter of the Chancellor of the University of Giessen. While in Cairo, Napoleon's fleet was destroyed in Aboukir Bay and Malus wrote, see [3]

Malus, Etienne Louis malus, etienne louis (17751812). French physicist who discovered the polarization of light by reflection from a surface (see polarized light. http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/M/Malus/1.html
Extractions: Malus began doing experiments on double refraction in 1807. This phenomenon causes a light beam to split in two on passing through Iceland spar and certain other crystals. An empirical description had been given by Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens , based on the assumption that light is wavelike in character, and Malus's results confirmed Huygens's laws. In 1808, Malus held a piece of Iceland spar up to some light reflecting off a window. To his surprise, the light beam emanating from the crystal was single, not double. He then noted that of the two beams that normally emerge from the crystal, only one was reflected from a water surface if the crystal was held at a certain angle. The other passed into the water and was refracted. If the crystal was turned perpendicular, the second beam was reflected and the first refracted. He described the light as being 'polarized'.

Extractions: Euclid (Alexandria) In his Optica he noted that light travels in straight lines and described the law of reflection. He believed that vision involves rays going from the eyes to the object seen and he studied the relationship between the apparent sizes of objects and the angles that they subtend at the eye Ibn-al-Haitham ( also known as Alhazen) (b. Basra). In his investigations, he used spherical and parabolic mirrors and was aware of spherical aberration. He also investigated the magnification produced by lenses and atmospheric refraction. His work was translated into latin and became accessible to later european scholars

This region becomes known as Magnesia. 600 BC - Thales of Miletos rubs amber ( elektron in Greek) with cat fur and picks up bits of feathers. 1269 - Petrus Peregrinus of Picardy, Italy, discovers that natural spherical magnets (lodestones) align needles with lines of longitude pointing between two pole positions on the stone. 1600 - William Gilbert, court physician to Queen Elizabeth, discovers that the earth is a giant magnet just like one of the stones of Peregrinus, explaining how compasses work. He also discusses static electricity and invents an electric fluid which is liberated by rubbing. ca. 1620 - Niccolo Cabeo discovers that electricity can be repulsive as well as attractive.
