FAQS
1. What is a Thin Film Laser Line Polarizer?
A thin film laser line polarizer is an optical component designed to selectively transmit light of a specific polarization (typically p-polarized) while reflecting or absorbing the orthogonal polarization (s-polarized) at a designated laser wavelength.
2. At what wavelengths do they operate?
Thin film polarizers are designed for specific laser lines (e.g., 266 nm, 355 nm, 532 nm, 1064 nm, 1550 nm).
3. Are custom coatings available?
Yes, Chenyu can provide custom AR coatings.
