Shape of Active Beam Splitter
In its most common form, a cube, a beam splitter is made from two triangular glass which are glued together at their base using polyester,, or urethane-based adhesives. Beam splitters are classified by construction (plate, cube, pellicle, polka dot) and by function (standard, non-polarizing, polarizing, dichroic). Beamsplitters are optical components used to split incident light at a designated ratio into two separate beams. a laser beam) into two (or sometimes more) beams, which may or may not have the same optical power (radiant flux). Those micro-struc-tures, once properly designed, can manipulate the light to almost any desired intensity profile or shape.
