Depolarizer Type




           
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Wedge Depolarizers
 
     The optic axis of the crystalline quartz wedge lies in the plane of the wedge, and at 45° to the input polarization. This has the effect of acting like a retardation plate which has a variable retardation across the aperture.
 
   Lyot Depolarizers
 
     Lyot depolarizers consist of two crystalline quartz plates assembled with their optic axes lying in the plane of the plates, aligned at 45°. One plate is exactly twice the thickness of the other. Depolarization occurs due to the production of varying amounts of circularly and elliptically polarized radiation of different wavelengths.
 
   Other
 
     Any other depolarizer type not mentioned.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
Performance




   Polarizer Application       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Infrared
 
     Polarizers that are designed for use in the 750 nm to 2500 nm wavelength range.
 
   Visible
 
     Polarizers that are designed for use in the 380 nm to 750 nm wavelength range.
 
   Ultraviolet
 
     Polarizers that are designed for use in the 4 nm to 380 nm wavelength range.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Wavelength Range:
 
     The wavelength range the depolarizer was designed to operate it.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Diameter:
 
     The diameter of the depolarizer when viewed straight on.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Clear Aperture
 
     This is the clear aperture of retardation plates.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Thickness
 
     This is the thickness of retardation plates.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Operating Temperature:
 
     The temperature range in which the device is designed to operate.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
Polarizer Surface




   Surface Quality:      Surface quality of the calcite.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   10-5 Scratch / Dig
 
     A dig is a defect on a polished optical surface that is nearly equal in terms of its length and width.

   20-10 Scratch / Dig
 
     A dig is a defect on a polished optical surface that is nearly equal in terms of its length and width.

A scratch is a defect on a polished optical surface whose length is many times its width. 20 / 10 indicates the average diameter of the digs to be .10 mm and the average length of a scratch is .20 mm.
 
   40-20 Scratch / Dig
 
     A dig is a defect on a polished optical surface that is nearly equal in terms of its length and width.

A scratch is a defect on a polished optical surface whose length is many times its width. 40 / 20 indicates the average diameter of the digs to be .20 mm and the average length of a scratch is .40 mm.
 
   60-40 Scratch / Dig
 
     A dig is a defect on a polished optical surface that is nearly equal in terms of its length and width.

A scratch is a defect on a polished optical surface whose length is many times its width. 60 / 40 indicates the average diameter of the digs to be .40 mm and the average length of a scratch is .60 mm.
 
   80-50 Scratch / Dig
 
     A dig is a defect on a polished optical surface that is nearly equal in terms of its length and width.

A scratch is a defect on a polished optical surface whose length is many times its width. 80 / 50 indicates the average diameter of the digs to be .50 mm and the average length of a scratch is .80 mm.
 
   Other
 
     Any other Scratch / Dig surface quality rating.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Surface Flatness:      The surface flatness of the plate polarizer, given in terms of lambda(lambda=633nm).
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   lambda/2
