Polarization Compensation for Corner Cube Reflector
Existing corner cube reflectors introduce unwanted polarization change to incident light. This invention provides a solution to remove this polarization change and thereby reduces polarization dependent loss and improves the performance of the reflector. This solution can be applied to both mirror-based and prism-based corner cube reflectors. This invention...

Birefringent Coating to Remove Polarization Dependent Phase Shift
This technology is a method designed to remove unwanted phase shifts from optical instruments to improve their performance. The method involves the manufacture and application of a layer, or multiple layers, of birefringent materials (materials with two distinct refractive indices) such that the unwanted phase shift is removed from the optical instrument. Background: Optical...
