colorPol® IR 1550 BC4 T2 HT –
A new member of the colorPol® HT polarizer family
Press Release 02/2008
The colorPol® IR 1550 BC4 T2 HT is the newest member of the colorPol® HT family. Since the successful introduction of the colorPol® HT (High Transmittance) polarizers in 2004, CODIXX continuous development activities in close collaboration with customers led to a variety of performance improvements.
With a thickness of 0.2 mm, the colorPol® IR 1550 BC4 T2 HT provides the same excellent performance as the well proven previous members of the colorPol® HT product family. The extinction ratio exceeds 40 dB (10,000:1) and the insertion loss undercuts 0.1 dB.
colorPol® HT polarizers have been developed especially for telecommunication applications. The filters offer unique transmittance properties of > 98 % (with AR coating) and the high contrast > 10.000 : 1 in the spectral range within 1,280 - 1,450 and 1,480 - 1,650 nm. Beside the already available thickness of 0.25 mm and 0.5 mm the HT version is now also available with the common thickness of 0.2 mm.
colorPol® polarizers are customized available in various shapes and dimensions from 1x1 mm˛ up to a maximum size of 100 x 60 mm˛.Also standard mounts with diameters of 12.5, 12.7 (1/2”), 25.0 and 25.4 (1”) mm are deliverable.
Due to the unique halide free colorPol® technology with embedded prolate silver nano particles in soda-lime glass, colorPol® polarizers have polarization properties in the UV (340 – 420 nm), the visible and infrared range (430 – 5,000 nm).
High temperature stability until +400°C, resistance against harsh environmental conditions, the most chemicals and UV radiation as well as the easy handling are the basis for the versatility and multitude of applications of colorPol® polarizers.
With the enhancement of the colorPol® HT polarizer family by the colorPol® IR 1550 BC4 T2 HT CODIXX is doing another important step to enter the future market of the optical communication.

colorPol® MIR – CODIXX is entering the mid infrared range
Press release 01/2008
 CODIXX extends the colorPol® polarizer product family with the colorPol® MIR to cover the mid infrared range. With the steady raise of applications in the MIR range like matter analysis or thermography, the polarizer is thrusted into the spotlight. CODIXX's answer to this challenge is the new colorPol® MIR.
This filter comes with a very large bandwidth and provides high extinction ratios of above 10,000 : 1 (40dB) within 2.0 µm ‑ 4.5 µm (in wavenumbers 5,000 cm-1 - 2,222 cm-1)
and above 1,000 : 1 (30dB) within 1.5 µm - 5.0 µm (in wavenumbers 6,666 cm-1 - 2,000 cm-1). Transmittance properties up to 90% underline the entitlement to a high performance polarizer.
 Based on the unique colorPol® technology for doping of sodium silicate glass with prolate silver nanoparticles all colorPol® polarizers provide high temperature stability up to + 400° C, resistance against rough environmental influences, against the most chemicals, UV radiation and bleaching as well as the ease applicability to name a few. Dimensions ranging from 1 x 1 mm˛ up to 100 x 50 mm˛ and different shapes are available. In addition, the filter is offered in standard versions with diameters of 12.5 mm, 25.0 mm as well as 0.5 inches and 1 inches, respectively. CODIXX is a manufacturer of optical polarizers for the infrared, the visible and UV spectral range. On the cutting edge of nanotechnology, its leading role is a result of steady development since it was founded in 1998.
