WPQW

Air spaced two piece waveplates are suitable for use with high-energy lasers (no optical contact occurs). These products utilize birefringence of quartz and give phase difference of λ/4 (π/2, 90°) or λ/2 (π, 180°) to the input beams. λ/4 retarders convert linearly polarization to circularly and circularly polarization to linearly. λ/2 retarders convert the direction of polarization arbitrarily.
