Advantages of High Power Waveplate
a).Compare with WPL, WPH has wider spectra & temperature bandwidth and wider angular field.
b).Based on our unique optical bonding technology, WPH has higher damage threshold and better extinction ratio which compared with WPO or WPC.
c).The thickness of WPH is more suitable for handling compare with single plate true zero order waveplate, which is easy to be damaged.
