Frequently Asked Questions

A Precision Linear Polarizer is a device that uses dichroic sheet polarizer material laminated between high quality glass substrates to produce polarized light.

Both mounted and unmounted Precision Linear Polarizers are offered as standard products. Mounted polarizers have a clear aperture of 0.40 inches and a thickness of 0.25 inches, while unmounted polarizers have a thickness of ± 0.020 inches and a diameter of ± 0.005 inches.

The peak-to-valley transmitted wavefront distortion for visible wavelength polarizers is less than λ/5.

Both visible and near infrared polarizers are supplied with a high-efficiency, broadband antireflection (AR) coating; single-layer AR coatings are optional on our ultraviolet polarizers.

The polarizer materials cover wavelengths between 320 and 2000 nm.
