Polarization Plane Rotators SKU: 470-4344
• Made of crystalline quartz • Intended to rotate beam polarization plane strictly to an appropriate angle using the circular birefringent effect As compared to a waveplate, a rotator has an intrinsic advantage of being independent of rotation around its own optical axis. It…
