PRODUCT FAMILY
Plate & Wedge Beamsplitters
Plate and wedge beamsplitters provide low-mass beam division with flexible aperture and coating options.
Polarizing, broadband, elliptical and infrared families allow selection around incidence angle, ghost suppression, material and reflected-to-transmitted power ratio.

SELECTION QUESTIONS
Plate & Wedge Beamsplitters FAQ
Technical answers to the questions that most often affect model selection.
How do plate, wedge and cube beamsplitters differ?
Plate beamsplitters are thin and economical but create a displaced transmitted beam. Wedged plates reduce ghost overlap. Cube beamsplitters provide compact orthogonal paths and easier mounting, while adding more glass and cemented or contacted interfaces depending on construction.
When do I need a polarizing beamsplitter?
Use a polarizing beamsplitter when the system must separate s and p polarization states. Use a non-polarizing design when the reflected-to-transmitted ratio should remain comparatively stable for different input polarization states.
Which data should be compared for beamsplitter selection?
Compare wavelength band, nominal splitting ratio, polarization dependence, angle of incidence, clear aperture, transmitted wavefront and reflected wavefront. Also account for beam displacement, ghost reflections and coating orientation in the mechanical layout.
