CSMH-05-550 5 x 5 mm 50:50 (R:T) N-BK7 Dielectric Half-Mirror Cube Beamsplitter; t=5mm 400-700nm
The CSMH-05-550 is a 5 x 5 mm 50:50 (R:T) N-BK7 Dielectric Half-Mirror Cube Beamsplitter, sourced from OptoSigma. This beamsplitter is a cube-shaped optical element designed for use in optical systems where beam splitting is required. The beamsplitter has a beam splitting ratio of 50:50, meaning it reflects 50% of the incident light and transmits the remaining 50%.
The beamsplitter is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass commonly used in optical applications due to its excellent optical properties. The geometry of the beamsplitter is a cube, with each side measuring 5 mm. This cube shape is often preferred in optical systems due to its robustness and ease of alignment.
The beamsplitter features broadband anti-reflection (AR) coatings on all surfaces, including the hypotenuse faces. These coatings are designed to reduce reflection and increase transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of the optical system. The AR coating on the hypotenuse faces is specifically optimized for the CSMH-550 beamsplitter.
The CSMH-05-550 is designed for use with wavelengths of 550 nm. However, it can also be used with a broader range of wavelengths, from 400 to 700 nm, making it a versatile component in many optical systems. The beamsplitter is currently in stock and available for purchase through the OptoSigma website.
