Chromium plate beamsplitters are one of plate beamsplitters that are coated with chromium (Cr) on the surface of optical parallels or wedged substrates. The other surfaces are coated with multilayer antireflection coatings. Half mirror divides input beam to reflectance and transmittance in 50%:50%.Plate beamsplitters have beam deviations of transmission and ghosts by rear surface reflection. Wedged substrates are used to prevent ghosts. |
