The CSMH-10-800 is a dielectric half-mirror cube beamsplitter, designed and manufactured by OptoSigma. This beamsplitter is a crucial component in various optical systems, particularly where the division of an incident light beam into reflected and transmitted components is required.
The beamsplitter features a 10 x 10 mm aperture, ensuring efficient light handling in most applications. The cube geometry, with each side measuring 10 mm, provides robustness and stability. The beamsplitter's coating is optimized for the 800 nm wavelength, making it suitable for applications in the near-infrared spectrum.
The CSMH-10-800 offers a 50:50 (R:T) split ratio, meaning that approximately half of the incident light is reflected, while the other half is transmitted. This characteristic makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring balanced light division.
The beamsplitter's front, back, left, and right surfaces are coated with ideal broadband anti-reflection (AR) coatings, minimizing unwanted reflections and enhancing overall system performance. The hypotenuse surfaces are coated with OptoSigma's proprietary CSMH-800 coating, further optimizing the beamsplitter's performance at the 800 nm wavelength.
