ABSTRACT:
An optical isolator system and method improving the manufacturability of the system, including fabricating a unitary tubular optical isolator system in two parts which are soldered together. The tubular system includes an internal disk to protect the isolator from heated solder during joinder of containment portions. The optical isolator system includes tubes to space polarizer, analyzer, and isolator portions.
