Variable Beamsplitter / VBS

 


With a variable beamsplitter, the incident angle of a laser can be changed.
The (R:T) ratios can also be modified. This is commonly used to adjust the light intensity of the laser without a variable adjustment of the light intensity or the laser to be stabilized.

Light Path Corrector (WSQNA/WBNA) are also available to compensate for beam shifts caused by variable beam splitters.
