GR50-0603 50 x 50 x 9.5 mm Soda Lime Glass; UV Ruled Reflective Diffraction Grating; 600 Grooves/mm Coated

The GR50-0603 is a Blazed Ruled Reflective Grating, manufactured by Thorlabs, with a base shape of a Rectangular prism. This grating has dimensions of 50 x 50 x 9.5 mm, with no inner or outer radius, making it a flat, rectangular structure.

The grating is made of Soda Lime glass, specifically soda lime ru clear, a material known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The grating is coated on the front side with a specialized coating, tho gr50-0603, which enhances its performance in specific wavelength ranges.

The grating has a blaze wavelength of 300 nm, which is the wavelength at which it is most efficient. It has 600 grooves per millimeter, which is a measure of its density and directly impacts its dispersion capabilities. The blaze angle is 5.15 degrees, which is the angle at which the grooves are cut into the grating surface. The dispersion of this grating is 1.67, which is a measure of how much it can spread out light of different wavelengths.

The orientation vector of the grating is (1, 0, 0), which means that the grooves are parallel to the x-axis. The grating is designed to operate in the -1st order, and the grating side is the front side.

The GR50-0603 is currently in stock and available for purchase on the Thorlabs website, as indicated by its weblink status. This grating is a versatile and high-performing optical element, suitable for a wide range of applications.
