Quartz Polarization Rotators offer 45deg or 90deg rotation at a number of common laser wavelength, the optical axis in a polarization rotator is perpendicular to the polished face of the optic. The result is that the orientation of in put linearly polarized light is rotated as it propagates through the device. Left-handed and right-handed rotators can be offered by MT-Optics,Inc.

What is the use of a Quartz Polarization Rotator?
In spectroscopic analysis, a Quartz Polarization Rotator is used to adjust the polarization state of light. By precisely rotating the polarization, it aids in studying how materials interact with polarized light, enabling detailed analysis of optical properties such as birefringence and dichroism. This is crucial for identifying and characterizing substances in various scientific and industrial applications, enhancing the accuracy of spectroscopic measurements.
