The BS056 is a non-polarizing beamsplitter cube, designed and manufactured by Thorlabs, a leading global supplier of photonics equipment. This beamsplitter cube is specifically engineered for use in the 700-1100nm wavelength range, making it suitable for a wide array of applications in the fields of biomedical research, optical telecommunications, and laser technology, among others.
The beamsplitter cube features a 5mm cubic geometry, providing a robust and compact design that ensures ease of integration into various optical systems. The BS056 boasts a reflection ratio of 70:30 (R:T), meaning that approximately 70% of the incident light is reflected while the remaining 30% is transmitted. This ratio is consistent across the entire operational wavelength range, offering reliable and predictable performance.
The BS056 is coated with Thorlabs' proprietary tho cbs bbar700-1100 coating on all surfaces, enhancing its performance and durability. This coating is specifically designed to maintain high transmission and low reflection across the 700-1100nm wavelength range, ensuring optimal operation of the beamsplitter cube in its intended application.
