POLARIZATION COMPONENTS

|

Quarter and half-wave retardation plate

-   Material: Quartz
-   Spectral range: 190 to 4000 nm
-   Tolerance retardance: λ/300

-   Wavefront Deformation:

        - Quartz between glass plate: λ

        - Quartz alone: λ/10

-   Standard wavelengths: 355, 488, 515, 532, 550, 633, 694, 780, 830, 852, 1053, 1064, 1300, 1550 nm

3 types of waveplate for every wavelength:

 

-   Low order quartz waveplate:

Thin quartz plate (60µm to 200µm ), 1st , 2nd or 3rd order.

Unmounted – cemented between glass plates - mounted on or between glass ring.
-   Multiple order quartz waveplate:

Quartz plate, thickness around 1mm.
-   Zero order quartz waveplate:

2 quartz plates, optically cemented, thickness around 1mm

Standard dimensions and references

*(M) : Available mount

 

On request : other dimensions to Ø150 mm.

 

Round zero order plates are square section cut to the right Ø.

 

Fast and slow axes are perpendicular to the section.

 

Antireflection coating: every wavelength: R < 0.2 to 0.3%.
