colorPol® polarizers colorPol polarizers are dichroic glass polarizers, made from a highly durable soda-lime glass containing silver nanoparticles. Like all dichroic polarizers they let the desired polarized light pass and absorb the unwanted polarization. Different types of polarizers are available to suit a wide field of applications operating at UV wavelength range (340 nm - 420 nm) and VIS, NIR and MIR wavelength range (440 nm - 5.0 μm). All polarizers can be processed like glass or silicon wafers, while being thin like foil polarizers. UV radiation and most chemicals cause no damage. They...

colorPol® polarizers The unique colorPol technology 0.2 - 0.5 mm colorPol polarizers are made of soda lime glass with silver nanoparticles embedded near both surfaces. The thickness of the silver nanoparticle layer depends on the polarizer type. Unlaminated polarizers have a thickness between 0.2 mm and 0.5 mm. Nanoparticles near surface The technology used by CODIXX allows a controlled size, density and shape of the nanoparticles. The prolate shape is needed to create a short and a long symmetry axis. These axes cause a wavelength dependent absorption and therefore polarization. To achieve the...

colorPol® polarizers Patterned polarizers In difference to a common linear polarizer, which provides the same optical properties over the whole clear aperture, a patterned polarizer is subdivided into segments. The segments may have different optical properties like the orientation of the polarization axis or wavelength range, or can be opaque or transparent. Size, shape and number of segments with different optical properties determine which of CODIXX´s unique manufacturing technology is applicable. Mosaic technology Lithographical technology colorPol® is well suited for this classical method...
