Quartz True Zero-Order Half-Wave Plate — Model HWP20-488BT

λ/2 quartz waveplate at 488 nm, mounted in standard SM housing.

Overview

These Quartz True Zero-Order Half-Wave Plates deliver a λ/2 retardance at the design wavelength. The true zero-order single-plate quartz construction provides superior thermal and spectral stability with minimal beam deviation. Each plate is anti-reflection coated on both surfaces (R < 0.25% @ design wavelength) and mounted in a standard SM05 or SM1 lens tube for seamless integration into polarization control setups.

Key Features

True Zero-Order design at the specified design wavelength
Retardance: λ/2
V-type anti-reflection coating on both surfaces
Surface finish 10/5 to 20/10
Operating temperature tolerant, polarization-stable
Mounted in standard SM05 / SM1 housing for seamless integration

Applications

Polarization state conversion (linear ↔ circular / elliptical)
Laser isolator, interferometry, and ellipsometry systems
Quantum optics and photonic research
Integration with polarizing beamsplitters and prisms
