Overview:

The Glan Laser prism polarizer is made of two birefrigent crystal prisms which are assembled with an air space. This polarizer is a modification of the Glan Taylor type and is designed to have less reflection loss at the prism junction. This polarizer is available with none, one or two escape windows. The one without escape windows is made for low energy lasers. The escape windows allow the rejected ordinary beam to escape out of the polarizer which makes it more desirable for high energy lasers. The polished faces of the side window are in the fragile cleavage plane of the birefrigent crystals. The surface quality of these faces is relatively poor as compared to that of entrance and exit faces. No scratch dig surface quality specifications are assigned to these faces.

The Glan Laser Prism polarizers are ideal for applications requiring extremely high degree of polarization purity (100,000:1) and high damage thresholds.
