Abstract

The present invention belongs to the field of optical detection devices, and specifically discloses a polarization modulator and a polarization measurement system, comprising a rotating compensator and a polarizer, in which the rotating compensator is a continuously rotating composite waveplate, the composite waveplate is composed of a plurality of single-waveplates of the same material, and the overall structure of the composite waveplate is determined by thicknesses and fast axis intersection angles of the respective single-waveplates according to the optimization design of the polarization characteristic transfer matrix of the polarization modulator. The polarization modulator of the invention has the advantages of simple structure, easy processing and a wide applicable wavelength range, and a wide-waveband polarization measurement system can be designed based on the polarization modulator, which is adapted to the requirements of wide-waveband precision polarization measurement.
