A cube-type half-mirror that splits unpolarized light, such as a white light source or an LED light source, equally between transmitted and reflected light.
Accurate branching characteristics can be obtained in wide wavelength bands of white light and LED light sources.
Since a dielectric multilayer film is used for coating, light loss is small and light can be efficiently separated.
Since it is a cube type, the optical axis of the emitted light will not be translated if the beam is incident vertically.
Also, even if a beam of the same size as the effective diameter is injected, the transmitted or reflected light will not be lost or reduced. *Enter light from the prism side marked with ○.
* Reflectivity and reflectance wavelength characteristics may differ when light is inserted from the opposite prism.
* When using linearly polarized light such as laser light, the reflectivity and transmittance vary greatly depending on the polarization direction.
* When adjusting the branching ratio to 1:1, tilt the polarization azimuth to 45 degrees or use circularly polarized light.
* The phase difference of the incident light is not stored in transmitted light or reflected light.
* Use a wave plate to compensate for the phase difference.
* Wavelength dispersion occurs in transmitted and reflected light due to the refractive index of the material and the thickness of the glass.
