Description
The OPTOMAN HWP-AS-ZO-515-25.4-AR1018-AR1018 is a precision zero-order air-spaced half-wave plate engineered for demanding 515 nm laser applications. Manufactured from high-quality crystalline quartz and enhanced with advanced ion beam sputtered (IBS) anti-reflection coatings, it delivers exceptionally low residual reflectance, excellent wavefront quality, and long-term polarization stability.
Its air-spaced construction minimizes thermal sensitivity while providing superior laser-induced damage resistance, making it an excellent choice for ultrafast, high-power, and industrial laser systems where precise polarization control is critical.
