Product Description
  • Optical material: UV fused silica
  • Operating wavelength: 245 nm-400 nm, 400 nm-700 nm, 700 nm-1100 nm, 1100 nm-1700 nm
  • Application: spectral splitting
LBTEK beam sampling mirrors are fabricated using UV fused silica substrates. By coating an anti-reflection film on their wedge surface and allowing incident polarized light to reflect off the uncoated surface, they achieve beam splitting and sampling functions. These beam sampling mirrors utilize the Fresnel reflection from the uncoated optical surface to sample 1-10% of the incident light, depending on the polarization direction of the incident light. When P-polarized light is incident at a 45° angle, the sampling mirror produces approximately 1% reflection, while S-polarized light yields about 10% reflection. Additionally, the back surface is coated with an anti-reflection film to effectively reduce reflections (ghost images). The beam sampling mirrors are designed with a 30' wedge angle to further minimize ghosting and interference effects. Currently, LBTEK beam sampling mirrors are available in multiple operating wavelength ranges and sizes.

  • Application: Beam Splitting

LBTEK's beam sampler has one side uncoated and the other side with an AR coating. Based on the polarization direction of the incident light, the beam sampler samples 1-10% from the incident light through Fresnel reflection from the uncoated optical surface. When P-polarized light is incident at 45°, the sampler produces approximately 1% reflection, while S-polarized light produces approximately 10% reflection. The arrow on the side of the product points to the AR-coated surface. The AR coating reduces reflection (ghost images). For applications sensitive to ghost image phenomena, please consider using a non-polarizing beamsplitter cube. The splitting ratio accuracy is sensitive to the polarization state of the incident light; please refer to the curve page for details.
