Request InfoEdmund Optics Inc.BARRINGTON, N.J., Oct. 10, 2014 — Providing greater than 75 percent transmission of P-polarize light, wire grid polarizing cube beamsplitters from Edmund Optics provide high contrast over large angles of incidence. The beamsplitters are constructed using a wire grid polarizer cemented between two precision high-tolerance right-angle prisms made of a N-BK7 substrate. An antireflection coating is applied to each face, providing an average of less than 0.5 percent reflection per surface. High spectral contrast is maintained from 400 to 700 nm over a large cone angle of +25°. The devices are designed for...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 7/26/2022Optical MountsThe E-Series of Adjustable Size Kinematic Optical Mounts from Edmund Optics Inc. can be used for mounting a wide range of round, rectangular, and square optical components, including round and...Photonics.com 3/27/2024Small Beamsplitter DetectorThe LIM-082 from InfraTec is a small beamsplitter detector in current mode that can be used in gas measurement technology.
