Product Description
  • Non-reciprocal rotation of the incident light polarization plane
  • Free-space input/output, clear aperture 3 mm/5 mm
  • Multiple center wavelengths available (405 nm, 450 nm, 532 nm, 633 nm, 650 nm, 670 nm, 730 nm, 780 nm, 795 nm, 850 nm, 905 nm, 980 nm, 1030 nm, 1064 nm)
LBTEK offers Faraday Rotators with various center wavelengths. When incident light enters the rotator in the forward (or reverse) direction, the polarization plane of the incident light rotates due to the Faraday effect. The rotation angle θ=V*B*L, where V is a constant related to the transmission medium, generally referred to as the Verdet constant; B and L are respectively the magnetic flux intensity component along the light propagation direction and the medium length. LBTEK Faraday Rotators provide non-reciprocal rotation while maintaining the polarization state characteristics of the incident beam. When the incident light passes through the Faraday rotator in the forward or reverse direction, its polarization plane will rotate 45° in the same direction, with the specific rotation direction depending on the medium properties and magnetic field direction. It should be noted that the magnetic field intensity and Verdet constant of the magneto-optical crystal will decrease as the temperature rises. It is recommended to use the device within a temperature range of 10°C-30°C. LBTEK also provides customization options for center wavelength, clear aperture, average power, and more. For special requirements such as operating temperature, please contact LBTEK technical support.

LBTEK Faraday Rotators can be used to rotate the polarization plane of light beams and are widely applied in various laser systems, such as erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, optical switches, and optical modulators. They effectively prevent optical damage or system instability caused by harmful reflected light. LBTEK offers customization services for parameters including the center wavelength, clear aperture, and average power of the rotators. For any customization needs, please contact LBTEK Technical Support.
