The 48-403 is a 50 x 50 mm rectangular beamsplitter, designed with a 70:30 (R:T) ratio, meaning it reflects 70% and transmits 30% of the incident light. This beamsplitter is made of N-BK7, a popular optical glass from Schott, known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold.
The beamsplitter has a thickness of 3mm, making it robust and suitable for various applications. It is specifically designed for the Near-Infrared (NIR) region, with a wavelength range of 700-1100nm, making it ideal for applications such as optical telecommunications, bio-imaging, and spectroscopy.
The front surface of the beamsplitter is coated with EDM 48-395, a coating that enhances its performance in the NIR region. This beamsplitter is available from Edmund Optics and is currently in stock, making it a readily available option for your optical system needs.
