The 32-330 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism, designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular material known for its excellent optical properties. The prism features a right-angle design, making it ideal for applications that require light deflection or reflection at 90 degrees.
The prism has a length of 10.0 mm for both legs, with a hypotenuse length of 14.1 mm. This compact size makes it suitable for use in compact optical systems where space is at a premium. The prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be beneficial in applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired, or where cost is a significant factor.
The prism is designed to work optimally at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, although it can be used effectively across a broader spectrum. It is important to note that the prism's performance may vary depending on the specific wavelength and angle of incidence of the light passing through it.
