The 48-904 is a 75 x 75 mm rectangular beamsplitter, designed with a 50:50 ratio for reflection and transmission. This beamsplitter is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material known for its excellent optical properties and wide transmission range. The beamsplitter has a thickness of 3mm, providing durability and stability.
The coating on the front surface of the beamsplitter is EDM 47-021, which is specifically designed to optimize performance in the visible light spectrum, between 400-700nm. This coating ensures a balanced 50:50 split of the incident light, making it ideal for various applications that require equal distribution of light, such as interferometry, beam combining, and imaging systems.
The beamsplitter's thin lens shape allows for easy integration into optical systems, while its rectangular geometry provides flexibility in design and alignment. The 48-904 is available from Edmund Optics and is currently in stock, making it a readily available option for your optical needs.
