Glan-Taylor Polarizer

Glan-Taylor polarizer and Glan-Foucault polarizer are Glan-air polarizer. Because it uses an air-gap rather than cement Glan-Taylor polarizers can thus be used with higher power laser beams. YVO4 Glan-Foucault polarizer has wide transimission wavelength from 400-4500nm. Alfa-BBO Glan-Taylor polarizer is good for UV laser.

Features of Glan-Taylor Polarizer

- Air-spaced
- Close to Brewster's Angle Cutting
- High Polarization Purity
- Short Length
- Suitable for low to medium laser power
