The 89-634 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 wavelengths, from 450nm to 10000nm, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The mirror is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties. This material is often used in high-precision optical systems due to its low coefficient of thermal expansion and high homogeneity. The prism shape of the mirror allows for precise angle adjustments, making it ideal for applications requiring precise light direction.
The hypotenuse of the mirror is coated with a protected silver coating, identified as edm protsil030010000. This coating provides high reflectivity across the specified wavelength range, enhancing the mirror's performance in its intended application. The protection layer on the silver coating ensures durability and resistance to tarnish, extending the mirror's lifespan and maintaining its performance over time.
The mirror's geometry features legs of 50mm and a hypotenuse length of 70.7mm. This size makes it suitable for use in moderate to large-scale optical systems. The mirror's base shape is a volume prism, which allows for a wide range of applications, including beam splitting, reflection, and refraction.
