Beam Polarization Beam polarization refers to the orientation of the electric field vector within the laser beam. Polarization can be linear, circular, or elliptical, affecting how the laser beam interacts with materials during engraving. By controlling polarization, operators optimize engraving efficiency and quality, particularly in applications sensitive to polarization effects, such as surface texturing or thin film processing. Understanding and managing beam polarization ensures consistent engraving results across diverse materials and applications, enhancing the performance and versatility of laser engraving systems. |
