ABSTRACT:
In an optical isolator, at least one of two polarizers has a polarizing beam splitter whose main section has a rhombic shape, and input and output end faces of the polarizing beam splitters are inclined with respect to the optical path of incident light. The angle of light incident on the bonding surface of the prisms constituting the rhombic polarizing beam splitter can be optimized, and return of the reflected light can be eliminated, thereby improving the performance of the optical isolator.
