  • What is the light source of a beam splitter

    What is the light source of a beam splitter

    Standard Beamsplitters are commonly used with unpolarized light sources, such as natural or polychromatic, in applications where polarization state is not important. A beam splitter or beamsplitter is an optical device that splits a beam of light into a transmitted and a reflected beam. The resulting beams are directed along different paths, allowing a single light. Beam splitters are the unsung heroes of the optics world.
