Description
Product Description:Light waves can have different polarization states, and it is often necessary to change the polarization states of light waves or detect the polarization states of light waves in practical work. Since the polarization state of the light wave is determined by the amplitude ratio and phase difference of its orthogonal vibration, changing these two parameters can change the polarization state of the light wave. A class of optical devices made by light passing through crystals, polymers or liquid crystals can change the phase difference of incident light, we call them wave plates, or retarders.
Product category:
1.Waveplates are classified according to their structure, including multiple-order wave plates, glued zero-order wave plates or compound zero-order wave plates and true zero-order wave plates.
1).The true zero-order wave plate has low wavelength sensitivity of retardation, high temperature stability, large acceptance effective angle, and its performance is much better than the other two wave plates. However, true zero-order wave plates are often very thin, so they will encounter many difficulties in manufacturing and use.
2).The thickness of a multi-stage wave plate is equal to a number of full wave thicknesses (n×waves) plus a desired retardation thickness. Multilevel waveplates are relatively easy to manufacture, but their disadvantage is that thWaveplates are divided into materials, and there are various crystal waveplates, polymer waveplates, and liquid crystal waveplates. They are sensitive to wavelength, temperature, and incident angle.
3).Gluing zero-order waveplates (composite waveplates) is to glue two multi-order waveplates together. The full-wave optical path difference is eliminated by aligning the fast axis of one waveplate with the slow axis of the other, leaving only the desired optical path difference. Cemented waveplates can improve the effect of temperature on waveplates to a certain extent, but another result is that they increase the sensitivity of waveplate retardation to incident angle and wavelength.
