Beam splitters, otherwise known as splitter mirrors or half mirrors, reflect / mirror a defined part of the light (usually 50%), while allowing the other part of the light to pass through. Common areas of application include optical instruments, but also e.g. teleprompters. The optical filter properties are the result of an ultra-thin coating.
