Product Series Overview

High Power Faraday Optical Isolators

The ISO-FRDY-08-1050-W Faraday Optical Isolator is essentially a uni-directional light valve. It is used to protect a laser source from destabilizing feedback or actual damage from back-reflected light. This 1050 nm high power free space optical isolator is packaged in a compact cylindrically shaped magneto-optic device with a base plate for ease of mounting into an optical train. It has a 8 mm clear aperture and a 1037 to 1063 nm wavelength range. Horizontal input and vertical polarization output. This -W version includes a 1/2 waveplate.

High Power Fused Silica PBS Cube

Our high power Faraday optical isolators use high damage threshold Fused Silica polarizing beamsplitter (PBS) cubes that are optically contacted rather than cemented. They also utilize double escape ports for added application flexibility.

1/2 Waveplate Option

We offer versions with an added zero order 1/2 wave plate (-W models) at the output stage so that the direction of the output beam polarization can be rotated to a desired direction.

High Efficiency Performance

The TGG crystal utilized in our Faraday isolators creates a large Verdet constant that ultimately describes the strength of the Faraday effect and provides effective isolation of back-reflected light. Additionally, these isolators have low absorption as a function of the TGG crystal and polarizers, resulting in reliable transmission of light in the forward direction.

Easy Placement into Optical Train

These isolators are packaged in a compact, cylindrically-shaped magneto-optic device with a base plate for easy mounting into an optical train.
