18 Sep 2009 The zero order waveplate is designed to give a retardance of zero full waves, plus the desired fraction. The zero order waveplate is designed to give a retardance of zero full waves, plus the desired fraction. Zero order waveplate shows better performances than multiple order waveplates, it has brod bandwidth and a lower sensitivity to temperature and wavelength changes.
