This 35-941 Beam Splitter, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in the visible light spectrum, spanning 400-700nm. The beamsplitter is rectangular in shape, with dimensions of 12.5 x 17.5 mm, and has a thickness of 1mm, making it a thin BS type.
The beamsplitter is made from N-BK7, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range. This material is identified as "n-bk7 schott" in the item data. The beamsplitter's coating, "edm 47-021", is applied to the front surface, contributing to its specific reflectance and transmittance characteristics.
The beamsplitter's physical data indicates a 50:50 split between reflection and transmission, meaning it reflects 50% of the incident light and transmits the remaining 50%. This makes it ideal for applications requiring equal distribution of light, such as interferometry, beam combining, or spatial filtering.
