## @deftypefn  {Function File} {@var{JM} = } jones_waveplate ()
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {@var{JM} = } jones_waveplate (@var{p})
## Return the Jones matrix for a linear wave plate with a phase
## delay given in wavelength units and long axis rotation of 0 degrees.
##
## @itemize @minus
## @item @var{p} is the phase delay in wavelength units, ranging from
## 0 to 1; if not given or set to [] the default value 0 is used.
## @end itemize
##
## Argument @var{p} can be passed as a scalar or as a matrix or as a
## cell array. In the two latter cases, a cell array @var{JM} of
## Jones matrices of the same size is returned.
