Problems solved by technology

However, these requirements are usually difficult to fully meet in actual mechanical processing and optical applications, which inevitably reduces the performance of the device.
In addition, the design of some prisms requires the light beam to be incident from one side of the prism, and if the light path is reversed by 180 degrees (this is often the case in optical applications), the performance of the device will be lower than that of the normal incidence. big difference
In addition, the bonding of two prisms usually uses materials such as Canada gum, and the absorption of these materials also greatly limits the application range of this type of device.

Abstract

The invention is a polarizer based on wave-guide resonance. It consists of lengthened prism, underside metal film, medium film and transmission-increasing film, and uses the metal film and the mediumfilm to form single-side metal-enveloping wave-guide construction and adopts the medium film as wave-guide layer and the metal film as envelope layer. It leads in the laser beam through the fibre-optical joint, makes the beam irradiate at the angle of wave-guide resonance, many times excites the resonance on the basal plane of lengthened prism in order plated with metal and medium films for getting rid of S or P wave and only leaving P or S wave, which realizes the high polarization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a polarizer for generating polarized light, in particular to a polarizer with high polarization extinction ratio based on guided wave resonance in an elongated prism, belonging to the field of optoelectronic communication and optical information processing. Background technique [0002] In the past two decades, with the development of laser technology, especially optical communication technology, the research and application of optical polarization devices have made great progress. Among them, the most common one is the polarizing device made by bonding birefringent prisms using the birefringence effect in the crystal, and this type of device is widely used in practice, and there are many reports on it. After literature search, it was found that US Patent No. 5,440,424 proposed a polarizing device made by bonding birefringent prisms. In this device, a total of seven birefringent prisms are bonded to realize their functions. F...
