Abstract

An ultra-high precision thin-film polarizing beam splitter (PBS) has been designed and fabricated. Using Needle optimization technology, we design the thin-film polarizing beam splitter that is transparent for P polarization and reflective for S polarization with ultra-high precision at 64.8° angle of incidence and 632.8 ± 10 nm wavelength band. The experiments with the fabricated thin-film PBS demonstrate that both the reflectance of P polarization and transmittance of S polarization at 64.8° angle of incidence and 632.8 nm wavelength point are less than 0.02%, which is ultra-high for reported PBSs.
