Laminated Polymer Film Linear Polarizers
Laminated Polymer Film Linear Polarizers
Our precision linear polarizers are constructed by laminating a polymer polarizing film between two high-precision AR coated glass or fused silica windows. The standard 12.7, 25.4, and 50.8 mm outer diameters are convenient for mounting into Newport rotary mounts.
- UV, visible, and NIR polarizers
- Low wavefront distortion
- Standard diameters for convenient mounting
- AR coated for maximum transmission See All Features

Precision Linear Polarizers
Our Precision Linear Polarizers consist of dichroic sheet polymer polarizer material that is laminated between high quality glass substrates. In the visible wavelength range, these precision optics offer peak-to-valley transmitted wavefront distortion of <λ/5. They feature high extinction ratios, surface quality of 40-20 scratch-dig and offer wide angular acceptance. Available mounted, each Precision Linear Polarizer includes a marked transmission axis on the front of the part, for ease of use. Wavelengths from 320 nm to 2000 nm are covered by a wide variety of polarizer materials. Visible and NIR polarizers include a BBAR coating, with AR coatings on the UV polarizers.
