5 Micron Wire Grid Polarizer
These wire grid polarizers are fabricated from 5 micron diameter tungsten wire, and have a choice of wire spacing down to 12.5 microns. They are suitable for use from approximately 50 microns (or 6 THz) to longer wavelengths. Please refer to the table below for the standard availability of wire spacing and frame clear aperture / outer diameter.
