Skip to the beginning of the images gallery

Mica waveplates are zero-order (first-order) retardation plates (phase plates) which are designed at 550nm wavelength and effective from 400 − 700nm. A mica sheet is sandwiched between optical glass discs for protection and ease of use.

Details

◦These products utilize birefringence of mica and give phase difference of λ/4 (π/2, 90°) or λ/2 (π, 180°) to the input beams. λ/4 plates convert linearly polarization to circularly and circularly polarization to linearly. λ/2 plates convert the direction of polarization in 90 degrees.
◦Usually linearly polarized beams are input to the waveplates in a leaning of 45 degrees against its optical axis.

Remark	-
Attention	Mica waveplates cannot be used for high-power laser applications because of their relatively high absorption coefficient and occasional inhomogeneities. Be sure to wear laser safety goggles when checking optical path and adjusting optical axis. If you want to use the polarization measurement, please use the crystal waveplate.
