The BS010 is a 10 mm non-polarizing beamsplitter cube designed for use in the 400-700nm wavelength range, offering a 50:50 reflection to transmission ratio. This beamsplitter cube is sourced from Thorlabs, a leading global manufacturer of photonics equipment.
The cube's geometry features a 10 mm side length, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications. The beamsplitter's physical data specifies a 0.5 reflection and 0.5 transmission rate, ensuring equal distribution of light between the reflected and transmitted paths.
The BS010 is made from n-bk7 Schott glass, a common material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. The beamsplitter is coated with tho cbs bbar400-700 on all surfaces, providing broadband anti-reflection properties. This coating enhances the cube's performance by minimizing unwanted reflections and increasing transmission efficiency.
The beamsplitter cube's shape is a cube, which is a volume-based optical element. This shape ensures robustness and stability in optical systems, making the BS010 an ideal choice for various applications.
