Polarizing Beam Splitters/Combiners
A polarizing beam splitter separates incident unpolarized light into two orthogonally polarized beams. Both output beams remain parallel to the input. The ordinary beam follows the original path without displacement; the extraordinary beam walks off along the optical-axis direction while remaining parallel to the incident beam. Reverse operation combines two orthogonally polarized beams. Common materials includeYVO4,a-BBOand calcite.
