Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wave plate related products, and more specifically to a refractable multi-level wave plate. Background Art

[0002] A wave plate is an optical device that can produce an additional optical path difference (or phase difference) between two mutually perpendicular light vibrations. It is usually made of birefringent wafers such as quartz, calcite or mica with precise thickness, and its optical axis is parallel to the wafer surface. Wave plates are divided into multi-order wave plates, cemented zero-order wave plates or composite wave plates, and true zero-order wave plates according to their structure.

[0003] A refractable multi-level wave plate is a wave plate that uses different refractive indices of media to achieve phase delay and interference effects on incident light waves through a multi-level structure. This wave plate can be used for applications such as modulating the polarization state of light and controlling the phase of light.

[0004] The existing refractable multi-stage wave plates still have the following problems: the existing refractable multi-stage wave plates often have multiple wave plates installed inside, but once a wave plate inside is damaged or needs to be replaced during use, the entire wave plate assembly needs to be replaced, which is extremely inconvenient to use and brings great trouble to the subsequent debugging and use;

[0005] Secondly, when installing existing wave plates, since the actual thickness of wave plates is mostly different, most of them use different limit rings with a large number of screws to clamp and fix wave plates of different thicknesses. This requires the use of limit rings of various sizes, which undoubtedly causes many inconveniences in use. In addition, when the wave plate is not in use, external dust often adheres to the surface of the wave plate, which brings great inconvenience to use.

[0006] In view of this, we propose a refractable multi-order wave plate. Utility Model Content
