The zero order waveplate is designed to give a retardance of zero full waves, plus the desired fraction. Zero order waveplate shows better performances than multiple order waveplates, it has brod bandwidth and a lower sensitivity to temperature and wavlength changes. It should be considered for more critical applications.
