The p-polarized ray passes undisplaced. The s-polarized ray is reflected and is transmitted through a hole in the wall of the enclosure.
Thus the power handling capability of Glan Laser Polarizers is high. Only the transmitted ray has high polarization purity.
Glan Laser polarizers are made of two birefringent prisms of the same material that are assembled with an air space.
The polarizer is a modification of the Glan Taylor type and is designed to have less reflection loss at the prism junction.
This polarizer with two escape windows allows the rejected beam to escape out of the polarizer, which makes it more desirable for high power lasers.
The length to aperture ratio of the Glan Laser polarizer is less than 1.0 makes it a relatively thin polarizer. This polarizer with side escape windows is suitable for medium to high power applications.
