2-inch Liquid Crystal Variable Retarders, Half-Wave, Without Compensation
The LBTEK 2-inch Half-Wave Liquid Crystal Variable Retarder is coated with corresponding anti-reflection coatings for the operating wavelength range of 400-700 nm, 700-1100 nm, or 1100-1650 nm. Under the control of an external AC voltage (DC voltage not allowed), it can achieve flexible adjustment of retardation between approximately 60 nm-λ/2 or 100 nm-λ/2.
It features a clear aperture of Ø20 mm, mounted in a mechanical housing with attached wiring. The mechanical housing is compatible with Ø2-inch optical component mounts and is marked with the fast axis direction of the liquid crystal variable retarder for convenient optical alignment by users.
Key Features
- Coated with anti-reflection films of 400-700 nm, 700-1100 nm, or 1100-1650 nm
- Retardation adjustable between approximately 60 nm-λ/2 or 100 nm-λ/2
- Clear aperture Ø20 mm
