Glan-Thompson polarizing beamsplitter cube (GPB6012)
Glan-Thompson polarizing beamsplitter cube uses two cemented calcite prisms to separate unpolarized light into s-polarized (45° deflection) and p-polarized (transmitted) beams, with a transmittance of over 90% in a rectangular metal housing, ideal for applications requiring two linear polarization states such as interferometry and laser systems.
