Beamsplitters Manufacturers

Beamsplitters is an optical device that splits a beam of light in two. The intensity distribution among the beams will depend on whether a reference-beam or a dual-beam system is required. It is partially reflecting and transmitting mirrors. They can be made with an extremely thin film of metal or with a stack of thin films. The reflectance and transmittance of thin metal films is almost flat over the visible wavelength range. Polarizing beamsplitters reflect a large percentage of the S polarised beam while transmitting the P polarized beam. It is widely used in stereo photography to shoot stereo photos using a single shot with a non-stereo camera. The device attaches in place of the lens of the camera.
