The 48-197 is a 25 x 25 mm rectangular Beam Splitter, specifically a Thin BS, sourced from Edmund Optics. This component is designed for use in the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum, with a wavelength of 355nm, and is part of the UVFS material family with the ID 1965.
The beamsplitter features a 30:70 (R:T) reflectance to transmission ratio, meaning it reflects 30% of the incident light and transmits 70%. This ratio is crucial for applications that require specific light distribution. The front surface of the beamsplitter is coated with EDM 65-922, a coating that enhances its performance in the UV spectrum.
The beamsplitter has a thickness of 2mm, which is considered a thin lens. This feature makes it suitable for applications where space is a constraint. The physical data indicates that the beamsplitter has a reflection of 0.3 and a transmission of 0.7, aligning with the 30:70 (R:T) ratio.
The beamsplitter's geometry, including its width and height of 25mm each, provides a substantial surface area for light interaction. This size, combined with its UVFS material and coating, makes it an ideal component for UV applications.
