Abstract. Scattering properties of directed polyvinyl alcohol films modified with titanium dioxide or silver nanoparticles and illuminated by a 0.63 μm linear polarized He-Ne laser radiation were investigated. Ability of the investigated nanomaterials to depolarize and scatter incident radiation and to form an illumination background close to diffuse scattering was studied.

Keywords: reflection, transmission, polarization, ТiO 2 , Ag nanoparticle, polyvinyl alcohol film.
