Conoscopic interference of polarized light for the white-light and LPS-7,5Volts direct current semiconductor laser (Green light) with wavelength at 532 nm in (Ca0.28Ba0.72)x(Sr0.60Ba0.40)1-xNb2O6 crystals were observed with the beams transmitting along optical-axes and deflection optical-axes from 0 to 140°. Endo-exo variation from looseness to tightness of conoscopic interference patterns were analyzed in theory. A hyperbolic black cross of interference patterns were observed as well as its formation process was proposed in this paper. Also, the inferences of the birefringence with different Ca2+-doped were obtained in this investigation.
