Elli-Ret (Retardation) > Polarimeter

Retardation Measurement System

Retardation Measurement System(Elli-Ret) is the retardation analysis system for High, Low, and Zero retardation films. This system informs the optic axes, Rin & Rth of retardation film and transmission or extinction axes of polarizing film. Ellipso Technology has a powerful software and hardware for accurate and fast measurement.

◈PERFORMANCE

   1.Measurement constants : Retardation(Rin, Rth), (nx,ny,nz), β-angle, optic axes
   2.Measurement speed : < 25 sec per point
   3.Reproducibility :< 0.005 nm(Rin)
   4.Spot size : 4 mm

◈RETARDATION SYSTEM

   1.Light source :Halogen lamp,
     Collimating system
     SMA type optical fiber couple
   2.Wavelength : 550 nm 
   3.Polarizer module : Single crystal polarizer on a high precision rotation mount
