Description
The OPTOMAN HWP-AS-ZO-1030-25.4-AR1147-AR1147 is a premium zero-order air-spaced crystalline quartz half-wave plate engineered for accurate polarization control at 1030 nm. Designed for demanding ultrafast and high-power laser applications, it combines exceptional retardation accuracy, excellent wavefront preservation, and low thermal sensitivity to deliver stable performance in research, industrial, and OEM laser systems.
Its air-spaced zero-order construction minimizes wavelength and temperature dependence while eliminating adhesive layers that can limit laser damage resistance. Precision AR1147 anti-reflection coatings reduce Fresnel reflections, maximizing optical throughput and minimizing unwanted feedback. Mounted in a standard 25.4 mm housing, this half-wave plate integrates seamlessly into common optical mounts and rotation stages, making it an ideal choice for femtosecond laser laboratories, beam delivery systems, nonlinear optics, and precision polarization control.
