    High Contrast Linear Polarizer - Meadowlark Optics
    Thin film laser line polarizers, such as those from Edmund Optics and EKSMA Optics, are designed for high-angle, typically 45° angle of incidence (AOI) operation. These polarizers are optimized for high laser damage thresholds and high extinction ratios in laser applications. 
    Key Polarizers for High Angles of Incidence: 
    • Thin Film Polarizers (TFP): Often used at 45°, these dielectric-coated, UV-grade fused silica plates transmit p-polarized light and reflect s-polarized light, ideal for high-energy laser applications.
    • Wire Grid Polarizers: These offer high acceptance angles and can operate effectively up to nearly 90°, making them suitable for non-collimated or diverging beams.
    • Glan-Thompson Calcite Polarizers: These are excellent for wide acceptance angles, utilizing total internal reflection to split polarization components, though their power handling is lower than thin-film options.
    • Brewster Angle Polarizers: These operate at a specific large angle where p-polarized light passes through with 100% transmission and no coating, while s-polarization is reflected. 
    Key Considerations: 
    • Angle Sensitivity: While some, like wire grids, offer wide-angle tolerance, others are highly sensitive to deviations from their design angle.
    • Construction: Thin-film plate polarizers are typically designed for 45°, and they are often used as polarizing beamsplitters.
    • Performance: Thin-film polarizers can achieve high extinction ratios (

      𝑇𝑝∶𝑇𝑠>1000∶1
      ).
