10BC17MB.3 25.4 x 25.4mm N-BK7 Broadband Non-Polarizing Cube Beamsplitter; t=25.4mm 1100-1600nm

This is the 10BC17MB.3 N-BK7 Broadband Non-Polarizing Cube Beamsplitter, a high-quality optical component sourced from MKS/Newport. The beamsplitter is designed for use in a wide range of applications, with a broadband transmission range of 1100-1600nm.

The beamsplitter is a cube-shaped element, with each side measuring 25.4mm. This cube geometry is a common design for beamsplitters, as it provides a robust and compact solution for splitting or combining optical beams. The beamsplitter's thickness is also 25.4mm, adding to its overall durability and stability.

The beamsplitter's coating is another key feature. Both the front and back surfaces are coated with an ideal broadband anti-reflective (AR) coating. This coating reduces reflection and increases transmission, enhancing the performance of the beamsplitter in your optical system. The left and right surfaces also feature the same ideal broadband AR coating.

The hypotenuse faces of the beamsplitter are also treated with specific coatings. The first hypotenuse is coated with a New MB.3 coating, while the second hypotenuse is coated with the ideal broadband AR coating. This combination of coatings ensures optimal performance across the beamsplitter's broad transmission range.

In terms of physical data, the beamsplitter has a reflection of 0.5 and a transmission of 0.5. This 50/50 split is typical for non-polarizing beamsplitters and is ideal for many applications.

The beamsplitter is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material for optical components due to its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. This material ensures the beamsplitter delivers reliable and consistent performance in your optical system.
