Medium Power Faraday Optical Isolators

Medium Power Faraday Optical Isolators
Our medium power Farady optical isolators use SF1 polarizing beamsplitters (PBS) for 461, 532, 650, 780, 850, 980 nm laser applications requiring up to a 2 kW/cm2 CW damage threshold. Double escape ports are provided for applications where rejected power exceeds 0.5 W.
- 461, 532, 650, 780, 850, 980 nm center wavelengths
- High Verdet constant
- Low absorption coefficients
- 1/2 Waveplate Option (-W models)
- Tunability over a broad spectral range See All Features

Features
High Efficiency Performance
The TGG crystal utilized in our Faraday isolators creates a large Verdet constant that ultimately describes the strength of the Faraday effect and provides effective isolation of back-reflected light. Additionally, these isolators have low absorption as a function of the TGG crystal and polarizers, resulting in reliable transmission of light in the forward direction.
Easy Placement into Optical Train
These isolators are packaged in a compact, cylindrically-shaped magneto-optic device with a base plate for easy mounting into an optical train.
