Glossary Of Laser Engraving and Cut Terms
[1] |
Polarization Polarization refers to the orientation of the electric field vector of light waves as they propagate through space. In laser engraving, polarization is often manipulated using polarizing optics to control the direction and characteristics of laser beams. Polarization can be linear, circular, or elliptical, depending on the orientation and motion of the electric field vector relative to the direction of wave propagation.
By adjusting the polarization state of laser light, operators can enhance engraving contrast, reduce glare, and improve material interaction during engraving processes. Polarization techniques are widely used in laser engraving applications to achieve precise control over laser beam properties and optimize engraving results across different materials and surface geometries. |
