  • Abstract
    We present the results of calculation and experimental testing of the tunable wavelength terahertz polarization converter (TWPC) represented by set of plane-parallel birefringent plates with in-plane birefringence axis. An experimental device has been produced and tested. The calculations show that the effect of interference between the interfaces, including air gaps, may be neglected. Considered device may be used as the simple narrow achromatic waveplate, or Solc band pass filter for the specified wavelength.
