.Novel kind of lyot birefringent tunable filters[J].Optoelectronics Letters,2006,2(4):266-268 Novel kind of lyot birefringent tunable filters ZHANG Jian LI Guo-hua [1]School of Sciences, Shandong Jianzhu University, Jinan 250707, China [2]Laser Research Institute of Qufu Normal University, Qufu 273165, China Abstract:       The retardation of wave plate has the sensitivity to the incident angle. We design a new kind of tunable Lyot filter based on the sensitivity. The method of tuning is rotating the wave plate by the axial direction parallel to the optical axis. It is proved that this kind of tunable Lyot filter has the properties of favorable tenability,wide tunable range. Hits: 3613 Download times: 157 View Full Text    Download reader
