Two new catalogues of CODIXX colorPol® polarisers out now

The CODIXX range of tough, dichroic glass-based colorPol® polarisers pass or stop polarised light, modulate or reduce brightness, diminish noise and lots more. With over two dozen standard colorPol® versions available for use throughout the UV, VIS, NIR and mid-IR wavelength ranges, CODIXX have released two catalogues to help you choose the right polariser for your application.
CODIXX colorPol® polarisers deliver:
- High contrast ratios
- High transmittance values
- Large acceptance angles
- Resistance to UV radiation and chemicals
- Resistance to temperatures up to +400 °C
The main colorPol® catalogue is complemented with a HT (high transmission) brochure especially for the optical telecoms industry.
CODIXX products are available in the UK and Ireland through Elliot Scientific. Please contact us for technical specifications, and details about standard and custom options.

New colorPol® polariser improves coverage in the NIR region

A comprehensive range of tough, dichroic glass-based colorPol® polarisers are available from Elliot Scientific to pass or stop polarised light, modulate or reduce brightness, diminish noise and lots more.
With the introduction of a new IR-specific model, nearly a dozen standard colorPol® polarisers are now available for use throughout the UV, VIS, NIR and mid-IR wavelength ranges offering:
- high contrast ratios
- high transmittance values
- large acceptance angles
- resistance to UV radiation and chemicals
- resistance to temperatures up to +400 °C
For technical specifications, custom and standard options for these polarisers from CODIXX, please contact us.
High specification colorPol® polarizers are more versatile than polymer filters

Polarizers are used in a wide range of diverse optical devices to pass or stop polarized light, to modulate or reduce brightness, diminish noise and lots more. CODIXX colorPol® polarizers from Elliot Scientific are based on dichroic glass and feature a high contrast ratio and a high transmittance.
Standard colorPol® polarizers are available for the UV wavelength range (340 – 415 nm) and for the VIS and NIR range (450 – 5,000 nm). We can also supply for the IR range (1,200 – 3,000 nm) as there are special versions of high transmittance (HT) polarizers with a transmission up to 98%.
- are flat like foil polarizers
- can be processed like glass or silicon wafers
- are resistant against UV radiation and chemicals
- have large acceptance angles
- are resistant against temperatures up to +400 °C
For more information on these versatile polarizers, please contact us.
