More Information

ThorLabs PA430 Polarimeter Overview

Features:

  • Versatile "Full" Polarimeter
  • Rotating Quarter Waveplate Technique
  • Free Space Beams and Connectorized Fibers Supported
The ThorLabs PA Series Polarimeter is a versatile 'full polarimeter,' which utilizes the rotating quarter waveplate (QWP) technique to measure the state of polarization (SOP) and degree of polarization (DOP) of an incident beam. Both free space beams and connectorized fibers are supported. The SOP is displayed numerically as a normalized Stoked vector, and graphically as a vector on a unit Poincare sphere. The DOP measurements include the total DOP, the degree of linear polarization (DOLP) and the degree of circular polarization (DOCP).

The ThorLabs PA430 Polarimeter may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
