Abstract

Apochromatic retarders can be constructed by using a combination of three plates of different birefringent materials with properly chosen thicknesses. However, when dealing with a broad wavelength range, their performance depends very much on the materials chosen. A procedure is presented for optimizing the choice of materials for such a broad-band retarder.
