Crystalline Quartz Polarization Rotator, 45Deg And 90Deg Clockwise
Overview: Crystalline Quartz Polarization Rotators rotate the polarization plane of an incident beam by a fixed angle, regardless of the rotator’s alignment relative to the beam’s polarization. Polarization rotators are a good alternative to waveplates with regards to rotating polarization by a specific angle. They produce a rotation in polarization caused by the optical activity naturally present in quartz crystals being independent of the rotator’s orientation around the optical axis. The Crystalline Quartz Polarization Rotators only need to be aligned perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light. We offer crystal quartz rotators with fixed 45° or 90° rotation at typical wavelengths such as 355nm, 532nm, 633nm, 1053nm and 1064nm.
