Tunable birefringent filters
TL;DR: In this article, the types and capabilities of birefringent filters are discussed and the current state of the art in practical filters is reviewed, including Lyot (perfect polarizers), partial polarizing, and Solc filters.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Achromatic Retardation Plates
TL;DR: A waveplate is a device that retards one polarization component of an incident wave relative to the orthogonal component as mentioned in this paper, which is a special case of phase retarders that are constant or nearly so over a significant spectral region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvements in birefringent filters. 5: Field of view effects
TL;DR: The field of view characteristics of wide field birefringent elements are compared with those of the Fabŕy-Perot (F.P.), Michelson (MI), and wide field Michelsen (WFM) interferometers and it is shown that by proper choice of material WFB elements can have angular characteristics identical with WFM interferometer.

TL;DR: In this article, a spectro-polarimeter (SP) was used to obtain the first high angular resolution, precision measurements of solar vector magnetic fields from space using a diffraction-limited 50 cm optical telescope.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Solc filter engineering
TL;DR: In this article, a Solc (1965) filter configuration is presented which is both tunable and spectrally variable, since it possesses an adjustable bandwidth, and which although less efficient than a Lyot filter is attractive because of its spectral versatility.
