Polarization Components

Precise control of polarization behavior is necessary to obtain optimal performance from optical components and systems. Characteristics such as reflectivity, insertion loss, and beamsplitter ratios will be different for different polarizations. Polarization will help achieve higher quality and intensity.

Optical Lenses

Optical Lenses are optical components designed to focus or diverge light. Optical Lenses, which may consist of a single or multiple elements, are used in a wide variety of applications from microscopy to laser processing. Many industries utilize Optical Lenses, including life sciences, imaging, industrial, or defense. As light passes through a lens, it is affected by the lens’ profile or substrate.

Optical Mirrors

Laser line mirrors are fabricated with specialized coatings that offer high damage thresholds, making them well suited for use with a range of high-powered CW or pulsed laser sources. Thorlabs' offering of laser line mirrors are designed to withstand the high-intensity beams typically produced by Nd:YAG, Ar-Ion, Kr-Ion, and CO2 lasers.

Laser Prisms

Prisms minimize reflection losses when used with linearly polarized light. Only light that travels within the prism parallel to the base will be perfectly transmitted. Since other wavelengths will experience high losses, the prism can be used to suppress their gain. Laser prisms are designed to tune a variety of laser systems efficiently.

Laser Windows

Laser windows provide a high degree of transmission of a specified wavelength for laser applications. Laser Windows may also be used to isolate a laser beam, reflecting or absorbing all other wavelengths. Several varieties of Laser Windows are available for both laser transmission or laser blocking applications.
