Description

  • 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 needs no adjustment, only to be installed normally to the incident radiation. A Polarization Plane Rotator is normally used for the specific wavelength. It is only slightly dependent on ambient temperature.
