RE-200

RE-200 measures low retardation adopting an optical axis with high precision - 3σ ≦ 0.02°. Since the polarization intensity pattern is obtained in one shot, the polarizer rotation mechanism is not necessary and the system realizes not only the world's fastest measurement time but stable performance for extended use.

 Features  (*option)
  • Possible to measure low(residual) retardation from 0nm

  • High-speed measurement of retardation simultaneously with optical axis detection(the world's fastest equivalent - to 0.1 seconds or less is possible)

  • High repeatability due to no drive unit

  • Less measurement items required to set and easier measurement method

  • Lineup includes various wavelengths in addition to 550nm

  • Rth measurement and omni-directional measurement possible(optional automatic rotation tilt jig is required)

  • *Combined with a tensile tester, photoelasticity can be evaluated simultaneously with the polarization characteristics of the film
