This is a BK7-NPBSC-10-1200-1600 10 x 10 x 10 mm N-BK7 Broadband Non-Polarizing Cube Beamsplitter, designed for use in the 1200-1600nm wavelength range. The beamsplitter is sourced from Simtrum, a reputable vendor in the optical industry.
The beamsplitter is a cube-shaped optical element, with each side measuring 10 mm. This compact design makes it suitable for various optical systems where space is a constraint. The beamsplitter is made of N-BK7, a high-quality borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including low autofluorescence and high transmittance in the visible and near-infrared regions.
The beamsplitter's coating is another notable feature. It boasts an ideal broadband anti-reflective (AR) coating on the front, back, left, and right surfaces, ensuring minimal loss of light due to reflection. The hypotenuse faces 1 and 2 are coated with a sim BB-NPBS 1600 45 coating and an ideal broadband AR coating, respectively. This specific coating configuration enables the beamsplitter to split incoming light beams efficiently across the specified wavelength range.
The beamsplitter's physical data indicates a reflection of 0.5 and a transmission of 0.5. This 50/50 split ratio is common in many optical applications, providing a balanced distribution of light between the reflected and transmitted beams.
