Silver Nanoparticle Polarisers   

colorPol^® Polarisers   

Polarisers are used to pass or stop polarised light, to modulate or reduce brightness, diminish noise and lots more...

colorPol® polarisers

are flat like foil polarisers have large acceptance angles of ± 20° are UV and chemical resistant are resistant to temperatures up to 400 °C are available for UV, VIS, VISIR, NIR & IR bands can be processed like glass or silicon wafers can be patterned with specific polarisation schemes and/or areas

colorPol^® glass polarisers utilise a unique silver nano-particle technology to deliver high contrast ratios and high transmittance for a variety of wavelength regions.

The wavelength ranges of effective polarisation span to the UV region (colorPol^® UV: 340 nm to 415 nm), the visible, and near infrared regions (colorPol^® VIS and colorPol^® IR series: 450 to 5,000 nm). With more than two dozen different standard polarisers available plus the customisable colorPol^® S series, there should be a model that covers your application.

A detailed catalogue can be downloaded from the Documents tab above or you can get individual polariser information from CODIXX.

Each colorPol^® polariser is characterised by its maximum of polarisation and the contrast ratio in the guaranteed wavelength range (>= 1,000:1, >= 10,000:1 and >= 100,000:1, indicated in the product name by C3, C4 and C5 respectively).

Due to their excellent properties and outstanding adaptability, colorPol^® polarisers are ideal in many applications:

• Optical sensor devices
• Illumination engineering
• Instrument filters for microscopy, ellipsometry, spectroscopy & polarimetry
• Photoelasticity, surface inspection
• Fibre related sensors
• Polarisation dependent optical isolators
• Optical communications engineering and data storage
• Electro-optical modulators
• High-temperature LC-Displays
• High-temperature LC-Shutters
• Lyot-Filter
