Beam Splitter Prism
Borisu’s beam splitters are divided into ordinary beam splitters, polarizing beam splitters, high power polarizing beam splitters, and depolarizing beam splitters.
Cubic Ordinary Beamsplitter
A cubic beam splitter is formed by coating the inclined surface of a right-angle prism with a film and then gluing a similar right-angle prism.
Compared with a beam splitter plate, the reflected and transmitted light of a beam splitter are of equal optical path. When transmitting light, the beam splitter is not affected by light deviation, and there will be no problems with beam translation, ghost images, and interference. Ordinary beam splitters are usually used for energy splitting in situations where the polarization state is insensitive. Since the beam splitter film uses a full dielectric film layer, there is basically no problem of light energy absorption.
It should be noted that since this beam splitter film itself has a polarization effect, the output light is partially polarized. If you want to avoid the influence of polarization sensitivity, it is recommended to use a polarization beam splitter or a depolarization beam splitter.

Polarization Beam Splitter
Polarization beam splitter prism, when the incident angle meets the Brewster angle condition, the reflectivity of polarized light P is 0, and the film layer is controlled so that the reflectivity of polarized light S is close to 1, and the transmittance of polarized light P is close to 1. When the light beam is incident on the film layer in the air, it is not easy to reach the Brewster angle condition because the refractive index of air is relatively small, so the film layer must be sealed in the cemented prism.
Compared with the beam splitter plate, the reflected and transmitted light of the beam splitter prism are equal optical path. When transmitting light, the beam splitter prism is not affected by the deviation of light, and there will be no problems of beam translation, ghost image and interference. Used for beam splitting and imaging. No long-term calibration is required when the incident angle is 45°. The P component of the incident light is completely transmitted, while the S component of the incident light is reflected in a vertical direction of 90°.

High-power polarizing cubic beam splitter is formed by coating the inclined surface of a right-angle prism with a film and gluing a similar right-angle prism.

Depolarizing Beamsplitter
The depolarizing beam splitter is different from the energy beam splitter. The depolarizing beam splitter splits the incident light into a transmitted beam and a reflected beam according to the calibrated splitting ratio without changing the polarization state of the incident light, and achieves the depolarization effect through the dielectric beam splitter film on the inclined surface.
Compared with the beam splitter plate, the reflected and transmitted light of the beam splitter prism are equal optical path. When transmitting light, the beam splitter prism is not affected by the light deviation, and there will be no beam translation, ghost image and interference.
It should be noted that the depolarizing beam splitter uses a metal-induced beam splitter film, so the outgoing light maintains the same polarization state as the incident light. Therefore, there is a certain absorption of the incident light (usually <10%), and it is recommended not to use it in a strong laser energy environment.
