The most common method is through the use of a beam splitter. This employs -- to keep it simple -- a partially transparent mirror placed at a 45 degree angle relative to the laser beam. Some of the beam passes through the mirror, and the rest is reflected perpendicular to the original beam by the mirror.

What does laser beam mean?
A laser is the device itself, the beam is.. well, the beam coming out of the laser.
What color laser beam does a DVD drive use?

What color laser beam does a Blue-ray drive use?

What is a beam splitter?
A beam splitter in its simplest form is a glass prism. the laser enters one face of the prism, and is split into two identical beams which exit at different places.
What color laser beam does a blue ray drive use?
Blue
How do you use matrix in a sentence?
The laser beam is produced from the emitter matrix.
What is a Lindsay beam splitter?

What is caution laser beam?
"Caution Laser Beam" is a phrase used on warning signs and labels to alert users and passersby that a laser beam may be present.
Will a spectrum be formed if a ray of monochromatic light falls on a prism?
No, a prism won't split a laser beam into a visiblespectrum. Light from most lasers is almost monochromatic, so glass prisms bend the light without splitting it.However, lasers are not perfect, and their spectrum is not an infinitely narrow line. The "linewidth" for a diode laser is a few megahertz, or about a billionth of a percent of the laser wavelength. So, if you use a prism to bend a laser beam, the beam will become slightly spread out, but only by about a hundred-billionth of the deflection angle.On the other hand, certain lasers are designed to emit light of several different frequencies at the same time. The argon-ion lasers used for laser light shows are these types. If you use a prism to deflect the beam of this sort of laser, the beam will be split into two or more colors. But once split, each color behaves as an independent monochromatic laser beam.
How does the laser ranging device work?
A laser-rang device works by using a laser beam to find horizontal fault movements. It can also use the laser beam to travel to a reflector and then back. Thus, the device can detect any change in distance to the reflector.
In a laser printer the beam detect mirror detects the laser beam by reflecting it to a blank?
