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 method

Abstract

The invention is a polarizing method based on the wave-guide resonance, belonging to the photoelectron communication and optical information process field. It excites the wave-guide resonance in the lengthened prism with the metal and medium film plated on the bottom surface in order, at the angle of the resonance, the resonance only attenuating S or P wave in the laser beam and allowing the P orS wave to completely pass through, and makes the laser beam irradiate at the angle of the resonance for completely getting rid of the S or P wave and only leaving the P or S wave, which realizes the high polarization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for generating polarized light, in particular to a polarization method 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 methods have made great progress. Among them, the most common method is the cutting birefringent prism method or bonding birefringent prism method using the birefringence effect in the crystal, and this method has been put into practical use, and there are many reports on it. After literature search, it was found that the US Patent No. 6,456,434B1 proposed a method for realizing laser beam polarization by cutting a birefringent prism. In this method, a calcite crystal is cut ...
