Liquid Crystal Variable Retarders are solid state, real-time, continuously tunable waveplates. Liquid crystals are birefringent materials whose effective birefringence can be changed by varying an applied voltage.
Meadowlark Optics Liquid Crystal Retarders are constructed using precision polished, optically flat fused silica windows spaced a few microns apart.
A Liquid Crystal Variable Retarder is the fundamental component used in the following devices and systems.
• Variable Attenuators and Rotators
• Variable Beamsplitters
• Spatial Light Modulators
• Non-Mechanical Shutters
• Beam Steerers
• Optical Compensators
• Polarimeters
• Tunable Filter
