This is going much better than the GB for beam combiner cubes !!! It's a jungle over there

likewhat said:Why do you need to use polarizing beamsplitting cubes? wouldnt it be cheaper to use regular beamsplitting cubes and lose half of your power? Do the lasers that you are combining have opposite linear polarizations? Or are you also going to be using half waveplates to rotate the polarization?
Are these lasers even polarized at all. I know the diode lasers are but do the green ones have something in them that kills the gain of one of the polarizations?
