The MRA05-M01 N-BK7 Right-Angle Prism Mirror is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the field of optical equipment. This mirror is designed for use in a variety of applications, thanks to its robust construction and precise specifications.
The mirror features a right-angle prism shape, which is a triangular prism with a 90-degree angle between two of its faces. This shape is ideal for redirecting light at right angles, making it suitable for use in beam steering and other applications where precise light direction is required.
The mirror is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass that is 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 its high homogeneity, which helps to minimize optical distortions.
The hypotenuse of the mirror is coated with a protected gold reflector (tho m01protgoldrefl4), which provides high reflectivity across a wide range of wavelengths. The gold coating is protected by a layer of dielectric material, which helps to prevent oxidation and other forms of degradation, ensuring the mirror maintains its performance over time.
The mirror has a geometry of 5 mm (l) x 7.1 mm (x), making it suitable for use in compact optical systems. The mirror is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase, as indicated by its weblink status.
