Fresnel Rhomb Retarders
Broad Wavelength Range: The retarders offer retardance over a wide wavelength range, typically from 400 nm to 1550 nm or even broader depending on the material used.
Quarter-Wave or Half-Wave Retardance: The quarter-wave retarder introduces a 90° phase shift between the orthogonal polarization components, while the half-wave retarder introduces a 180° phase shift.
Uniform Retardance: The retardance is uniform across the specified wavelength range, with minimal variation.
Cemented Prisms: The rhomb retarders are constructed from cemented prisms, ensuring structural integrity and stability.
Easy Installation: Many models come with SM1-threaded mounts, allowing for easy installation using standard optical mounts.
Applications: Optics and Photonics Research, Laser Systems, Optical Instrumentation, Telecommunications, etc.
