The 87-394 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism Mirror is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This mirror is designed for use in a wide range of applications, particularly where precise reflection and refraction of light are required.
The mirror is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties. The N-BK7 material ensures high transmission and low absorption across a broad spectrum, making it suitable for use in various wavelength ranges. In this particular mirror, the wavelength of 588nm is highlighted, indicating its specific design for applications within this spectrum.
The mirror features a right-angle prism geometry, which is ideal for redirecting light at right angles. The geometry consists of two legs, each measuring 40mm, and a hypotenuse that measures 56.6mm. This specific geometry allows for efficient and precise light manipulation, making it a versatile tool in optical systems.
The hypotenuse of the mirror is coated with a dielectric coating, specifically the EDM DCURV400TO7500AO. This coating is designed to provide high reflectivity for wavelengths between 400nm and 750nm, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including but not limited to, spectroscopy, interferometry, and beam manipulation.
