Waveplate

Zero-order waveplate

The zero order waveplate is designed to give a retardance of zero full waves, plus the desired fraction. Zero order waveplate shows better performance than multiple order waveplates. It has broad bandwidth and a lower sensitivity to temperature and wavelength changes. It should be considered for more critical applications.

Specifications:

Material: Quartz
Dimension Tolerance: +0.0, -0.1
Wavefront Distortion: < λ /8@633nm
Retardation Tolerance: λ /500
Parallelism: <1 arc second
Surface Quality: 20/10 scratch/dig
Clear Aperture: Central 90%
AR Coated: <0.2% @ wavelength

Dayoptics provides standard waveplate wavelengths (nm) listed as below:

Zero Order Waveplates-Cemented by Epoxy

This type of zero order waveplate is constructed of two multiple order waveplate with their axes crossed.Thus,the effect of the first plate is canceled by the second,except for the residual difference between them.
