![]() Light propagating through the isolator in the backward direction is polarized at 45° by the output polarizer and is rotated by 45° by the Faraday rotator, giving a net polarization of 90° relative to the transmission axis of the input polarizer. They contain a Faraday rotator that has been factory tuned to rotate light of the design wavelength by 45°. Thorlabs' Adjustable Narrowband Isolators are designed to provide the same peak isolation anywhere within a 20 - 40 nm tuning range. Operating Principles of Optical Isolators Light at the Design Wavelength is Rejected ![]() We offer a selection of faraday rotators from stock and can provide custom faraday rotators upon request. Our vertically integrated manufacturing structure allows us to offer faraday rotators used in optical isolators. Thorlabs' in-house manufacturing service has over 25 years of experience and can deliver a free-space isolator tuned to your center wavelength from 244 nm to 4.55 µm. If Thorlabs does not stock an isolator suited for your application, please refer to the Custom Isolators tab for information on our build-to-order options, or contact Tech Support. As indicated in the tables below and pictured to the right, many of our stock isolators can also be provided in a mount designed for our FiberBench systems. Thorlabs also manufactures isolators for fiber optic systems and wavelengths extending into the infrared (see the Selection Guide table to the left). In addition, all isolators have engravings that indicate the alignment of the input and output polarizers. Please see the Isolator Types tab for additional design details and representative graphs of the wavelength-dependent isolation.Įach isolator's housing is marked with an arrow that indicates the direction of forward propagation. The third type, Tandem Narrowband Isolators, consists of two Faraday rotators in series, boosting the isolation to at least 55 dB at the expense of lower transmission. The second type, Adjustable Narrowband Isolators, offers the user the ability to adjust the alignment of the input and output polarizers, allowing tuning of the center wavelength within a 20 - 40 nm range see the tables below for details. Any deviation from this wavelength will cause a dip in isolation and transmission. The first type, Fixed Narrowband Isolators, contains fixed, factory-aligned optics, for which peak isolation and peak transmission occurs at a pre-defined center wavelength. *Above specifications are for device without connector and may change without notice.ĬSRAYZER is specialized in designing and manufacutring Optic Passive Components, widely used for Fiber Laser, Fiber Sensor, Fiber LIDAR system and solutions. Search ‘CSRAYZER’ on Twitter to know more about us.In the visible wavelength range, we offer three types of isolators. It is widely used in various laser systems, such as multi-level laser amplifier, optical parametric oscillator, and seed injection Laser, optical switch, optical modulator, etc. Faraday Isolators can effectively avoid the problems of optical damage and system instability caused by the reflected light. It uses polarizer with a damage threshold of 500GW/m2 and a high-power magneto-optic material, with features such as high handing power, low insertion loss, high isolation, and customizable operating wavelength from 700-2000nm. The High Power Polarization Dependent Free Space Isolator provided by CSRAYZER reserves a double escape window. ![]() Back reflection often leads to instability of the system. ![]() It can isolate the light source and block its back reflection. High Power Free Space Isolator HIO Series Product s, which also named Faraday Isolator s, are magneto-optical devices that only allow light to pass through in one direction. ![]()
