from CeNing Optics Co., Ltd.
Multiple order waveplates are made from a single crystalline plate, which are designed to give a retardance of several full waves, plus the desired fraction. Multiple order waveplates are more susceptible to change in wavelength and they should not be used more than several nanometers outside of... [See More]

Low cost waveplate, sensitive to variations in wavelength and temperature. The low (multiple) order waveplate is designed to give a retardance of several full waves, plus the desired fraction. This results in a single, physically robust component with desired performance. However, even small... [See More]
- Surface Flatness: λ/8
- Polarizer Application: Infrared (optional feature); Visible (optional feature); Ultraviolet (optional feature)
- Retardation: Half
- Wavelength Range: 266 to 1550

Better performance than low or multiple order waveplates. 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... [See More]
