The BSW710 Dia:1in 50:50 (R:T) ZnSe Plate Beamsplitter is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs. This beamsplitter is designed with a circular geometry, featuring a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm) and a thickness of 5 mm, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The beamsplitter is made of ZnSe material, identified as 'znse marple-1964' in the Material ID. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it suitable for use in the visible and near-infrared regions of the spectrum. The BSW710 is specifically designed for use at a wavelength of 633 nm.
The beamsplitter features a 50:50 reflection-to-transmission ratio, meaning it evenly splits incoming light into reflected and transmitted components. This is particularly useful in applications where equal distribution of light is required.
The front surface of the beamsplitter is coated with 'tho 50znsebs70001400', a specialized coating that enhances its performance in the 7-14 µm wavelength range. This coating ensures optimal operation within its specified wavelength range.
The BSW710 is available in a 'Thin Lens' shape, which is beneficial in applications where a thin, lightweight beamsplitter is required. This beamsplitter is currently in stock, as indicated by its 'Valid - in stock' weblink status.
