High Power Glan Laser Polarizer
Glan Laser prism polarizer is made of two same
birefringent material prisms that are assembled with an air
space. The polarizer is a modification of the Glan Taylor type
and is designed to have less reflection loss at the prism junction.
The polarizer with two escape windows allows the rejected beam
to escape out of the polarizer, which makes it more desirable
for high energy lasers. The surface quality of these faces is
relatively poor compare to that of entrance and exit faces.
No scratch and dig surface quality specifications are assigned
to these faces. The polarized field F1 and F2 of these is shown
in the plot below.

Angular Field vs Wavelength

Features:
Air-spaced
Close to Brewster's Angle Cutting.
High Polarization Purity.
Short Length.
Suitable for low to medium power application where the rejected
beam is not required.
