Advantages Of Wire-Grid Polarizers

Matt Free, director of optics sales and marketing at MOXTEK, discusses the advantages of their wire-grid polarizers. These polarizers are extremely durable, which allow for design flexibility. MOXTEK also has the ability to change the material in which the wire grid is made of. For visible applications, an aluminum grid is ideal, though other metallics or even dielectrics are available dependent on your application. These polarizers can be used in applications involving digital cinema, simulation projectors, the medical market, the military market, and in measurement systems.
