Achromatic Waveplates

Achromatic wave plates are made of birefringent crystals made of two different materials. Since the dispersion of the two materials is different, a relatively uniform phase delay can be achieved over a wide wavelength range. Achromatic wave plates are also not very sensitive to temperature.

Achromatic wave plate is a special kind of Zero Order wave plate, comprised of two wave plates made by two different birefringent materials (e.g. crystal quartz and magnesium fluoride). The existence of chromatic dispersion greatly affects the refractive indices of materials. The two birefringent materials which construct the ...

The Liquid Crystal Polarization Rotator is a highly useful optical component that effectively and achromatically rotates the polarization of light. It uses Liquid Crystal twisted nematic technology to rotate the orientation of linear polarization by a fixed amount of typically 45° or 90°.     The device has a wide ...

Waveplate is an optic in which the polished faces contain the optical axis. All light incidents normal to the surface are composed of components polarized parallel and perpendicular to the axis. In such a device, light polarized parallel to the axis will propagate slower than light polarized perpendicular to the axis. As the light ...

Achromatic Waveplate   Achromatic waveplate is made from two different substrate materials such as crystal quartz and magnesium fluoride. For the single material,waveplate’s working wavelength is very limited because of the dispersion of the material. But Achromatic Waveplate uses two different kinds of materials,with the ...

Photonchina’s waveplates fabrication starts from quartz materials cutting with their axes oriented within a few arcminutes before being polished to a laser-quality finish, arcsecond parallelism, and <λ/10 wavefront. Their thickness tolerance is a only small fraction of a micron. To verify retardation tolerances, ...

Waveplates are manufactured from birefringent crystal materials that split monochromatic incoming beam into two orthogonally polarized  beams travelling at different velocities. There will generally be one or more propagation directions (ordinary and extraordinary ray directions) depending on whether the material is ...
