Half wave plate rotates polarization so that the fast axis (highest intensity)is in line with the polarizer; the signal passes through polarizer with the narrowing of the pulse due to extinguishing of the low-intensity tail-modes; the quarter wave plate turns linearly polarized light into elliptically polarized light so that the non-linear rotation continues.
