Applications
Optical metrology and interferometers: split the incident light into two orthogonal linearly polarized beams for measuring phase difference; realize polarization beam splitting in interferometers for high-precision displacement detection.; Laser processing and polarization control: generate orthogonally polarized laser beams for polarization-sensitive processing and birefringent material processing; split beams to optimize energy distribution and processing uniformity.; Polarizing microscopes and biological imaging: generate polarization contrast in microscopes to enhance the visibility of transparent samples such as biological tissues and crystals; separate the polarization states of reflected and transmitted light for clearer imaging.; Quantum optics and photonic experiments: split entangled photon pairs into orthogonal polarization states for quantum state analysis or Bell inequality tests; separate polarization modes in single-photon detection to support the development of quantum communication.
Key Features
Cemented or optical contact; separates the ordinary beam and extraordinary beam at a specific angle; suitable for low-power applications and situations requiring large deviation
