Cemented Achromatic Waveplates are built by cementing the Quartz waveplate and MgF2 waveplate together. The use of crystalline Quartz with MaF2 minimizes the wavelength dependence of the retardation such that a nearly flat spectral response is achieved over the entire operating range of the achromatic wave plate. The flat response of an Achromatic Waveplate is ideal for use with tunable lasers, multiple laser-line systems, and other broad spectrum sources.

Air-spaced Achromatic Waveplates are constructed of Quartz waveplate and MgF2 waveplate, air-spaced to allow for use with high power applications. The use of crystalline Quartz with MaF2 minimizes the wavelength dependence of the retardation such that a nearly flat spectral response is achieved over the entire operating range of the achromatic wave plate. The flat response of an Achromatic Waveplate is ideal for use with tunable lasers, multiple laser-line systems, and other broad spectrum sources.

Zero Order Waveplates are built by cementing two multi-order Quartz waveplates with an optical path length difference of λ/4 or λ/2. Compound zero-order waveplates provide wide tunability about the design wavelength. They also offer excellent temperature stability as temperature effects of the two components parts tend to cancel out.

True Zero Order Waveplate
True Zero Order Waveplates are constructed of a crystal quartz waveplate in contact with a high precision BK7 glass window. As the waveplate is very thin and easy to be damaged, the Bk7 plate's function is to strengthen the waveplate. A dual-sided anti-reflection (AR) coating helps minimize surface reflection losses and return loss.
