Page 2 - Mounted Waveplates

Ealing Zero Order Waveplates are the preferred type of waveplate. They are not as sensitive to changes in temperature, wavelength, angle of incidence, or collimation. A wavelength shift of 15 nm will result in approximately a 1% retardation change. They are supplied in a 25.4 nm mount. Applications for Half Waveplates include ...

A Quarter Waveplate is used to convert linearly polarized beams into circularly polarized beams (and vice versa). The construction of a Quarter Waveplate is such that the fast axis, indicated by the marked line, lies in the surface at 45° to the input polarization. The input beam is resolved into two components of equal ...

A waveplate or retarder is an optical device that alters the polarization state of a light wave travelling through it. Two common types of waveplates are the half wave plate and the quater wave waveplate. Waveplates are constructed out of a birefringent material, such as quartz, for which the index of refraction is different for ...
