34-405 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 50.0 mm VIS 0° 425-675nm on Hypotenuse

The 34-405 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed for use in the visible spectrum, with a wavelength of 587.6 nm, and is constructed from N-BK7 glass, a popular choice due to its excellent optical properties and wide availability.

The prism features a right-angle design, which is versatile and commonly used in various optical systems. The geometry of the prism includes legs of 50 mm and a hypotenuse of 70.7 mm, providing a substantial surface area for light refraction. The hypotenuse is coated with the EDM VIS-0 standard curve coating, which is designed to minimize reflection and improve transmission in the visible spectrum.

This prism is a Volume prism, meaning it is designed to refract light over a larger volume, providing more precise control over light paths. The coating on the back surface ensures optimal performance and minimal loss of light.
