  • Optical splitter splits one beam into two polarized beams

    Optical splitter splits one beam into two polarized beams

    A PBS (Polarizing Beamsplitter) is an optical device used to split a beam of light into two separate beams with orthogonal polarizations, typically called the "s-polarized" and "p-polarized" beams. It works by transmitting one polarization while reflecting the other. It is a crucial part of many optical experimental and measurement systems, such as interferometers, also finding widespread application in fibre optic telecommunications. Beamsplitters are often classified according to their construction: cube or plate. A beam splitter (or beamsplitter, power splitter) is an optical device which can split an incident light beam (e. a laser beam) into two (or sometimes more) beams, which may or may not have the same optical power (radiant flux).
