12.5mm Diameter, 50R/50T, Plate Beamsplitter

Optical coatings are used to influence the transmission, reflection, or polarization properties of an optical component.

Optical components that create two beams by splitting incident light are beamsplitters. Read more about the different types of beamsplitters at Edmund Optics.

Beamsplitters do exactly what their name implies: split incident light beams.

Continuing from where Part I: X-Y Setup ends, learn how to add a Z-axis to an existing X-Y configuration to achieve three degrees of freedom.

Edmund Optics offers both fixed power and zoom beam expanders. Knowing which beam expander is right for your application can greatly improve system efficiency.
