Quarter-wave plate, low-order 5WP-4-556L-L

transform linearly polarized radiation with 556 nm into circularly polarized radiation

5WP-x-xxxx-L

Features

The retardation optics of type 5WP-4-556L-L is a quarter-wave plate that transforms linearly polarized radiation with 556 nm into circularly polarized radiation.

Attachment optics with system mount Ø 8 mm for fiber collimators type 60FC with outer diameter Ø 12 mm
Low-order quarter-wave retardation optics with an 1.5° inclined mounting in oder to avoid direct back-reflections
Center wavelength: 556 nm
Free rotation for best adjustment with positional locking using radially arranged screws.
Long-form housing with system mount Ø 8 mm for adding additional attachment optics
Adjustable using Schäfter+Kirchhoff Polarization Analyzer series SK010PA.
For collimating focal lengths f > 25 mm Schäfter+Kirchhoff offers fiber collimators of type 60FC-Q with integrated retardation optics.
