Cube Beamsplitter, Polarizing, High Energy Nd:YAG, 5.0 mm, 1550 nm

High Energy Laser Line Polarizing Cube Beamsplitters

The 05BC15PH.10 High-energy Polarizing Cube Beamsplitter provides efficient narrowband polarization for use with Nd:YAG lasers. Each polarizer consists of a pair of precision right-angle prisms optically contacted together. No cement is used. Optimized for 1550 nm, a damage threshold of up to 5 J/cm² with 10 ns pulse at 266 nm is achievable. This high-energy polarizing cube beamsplitter is 5.0 x 5.0 x 5.0 mm and can be conveniently mounted on Newport holders.
