Quarter Wave ( /4)
|
|
Quarter waveplates are made of a double-refracting crystal having such a density that a phase difference of one-quarter cycle is formed between the ordinary and extraordinary elements of light passing through.
|
| |
Half Wave ( /2)
|
|
Half waveplates are made of a double-refracting crystal having such a density that a phase difference of one-half cycle is formed between the ordinary and extraordinary elements of light passing through.

| |
Zero or Multiple Order
|
|
The retardation value of a multiple order waveplate is strongly dependent on temperature, wavelength, and angle of incidence. Zero order waveplates do not have this dependency.
|
| |
Your choices are...
|
|
|
| |
Zero Order
|
|
If the phase difference at emergence is the actual phase shift and not some equivalent multiple, the retardation is said to be zero order (first order).
|
| |
Multiple Order
|
|
If the phase difference at emergence is the not the actual phase shift and some equivalent multiple, the retardation is said to be multiple order.

Achromatic
|
|
Two plates are used so that the spectral dispersion of birefringence in each plate cancels out over a defined spectral range.

Calcite
|
|
Calcite is a bifringent material that is used for retardation plates.o-1.658; ne-1.486
|
| |
Mica
|
|
Mica provides low cost general purpose retardation plates. Mica does, however, have a relatively strong absorption and low resistance to damage. It should therefore be limited to low power applications.
|
| |
Quartz
|
|
Quartz is a bifringent material that is used for retardation plates. no-1.544; ne-1.553
