Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
Normally it is desirable that the state of polarization be not influenced by the optical components used. For the
generation or maintenance of specific states of polarization the influence of optical components on the beam
polarization is crucial. For generating circularly polarized radiation from linearly polarized radiation π/2 phase
retarders are used.
This International Standard describes methods to determine the relative phase retardation of optical
components with respect to the x- and y-axes of the polarization and s- and p-polarization, respectively. This
International Standard is necessary for optics manufacturers, suppliers and customers of such optics for the
determination of the influence of phase retardation of optical components.

5 Measurement principle
The optical component under test is irradiated by a laser beam with a defined state of polarization. After
passing the component the state of polarization of the beam is determined by using an analyser. The phase
retardation is then evaluated from the change of the state of polarization.
There are two cases to distinguish:
a) the expected phase retardation is near zero: in this case a circularly polarized beam shall be used for the
test;
b) the expected phase retardation is near π/2: in this case a linearly polarized beam shall be used for the
test.

b) Optical path for transmissive samples
