The dual beam combiner from Power Technology Inc. merges the output of two IQ (instrument quality) laser heads into a unique, co-linear beam. Beam combining is achieved by employing a polarizing beamsplitter in a reversed configuration. Two beams enter the beamsplitter and emerge as a single beam.

Beam combining offers two main advantages: (1.) Merging similar wavelengths will double the power available at that wavelength, and (2.) the process makes it possible to merge two different wavelengths. For example, certain applications require the alignment of infrared beams. Dual beam combining allows users to mix infrared and visible wavelengths for an easy means of alignment.

Most standard diode wavelengths can be combined. Typical wavelengths range from 375nm to 2400nm.
