Reason: The photo shows the subject of the article in a simple and easy to comprehend way. It shows the birefringence property of a crystal as the laser beam splits in two while traveling from left to right. There is also some secondary fluorescence effects. FP on Commons.

Support. I think it's neat that the doubled beam within the crystal generates the appearance of four beams in the image because of the birefringence happening a second time at the crystal face parallel to the image plane. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:43, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
