34-408 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 15.0 mm NIR I 600-1050nm on Hypotenuse

The 34-408 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed for use in the near-infrared (NIR) region, specifically between 600 and 1050 nanometers, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in this spectral range.

The prism is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass manufactured by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, including high homogeneity and low auto-fluorescence, making it a popular choice for many optical applications. The prism's geometry features two legs of 15 millimeters each and a hypotenuse of 21.2 millimeters, providing a compact and efficient design.

The hypotenuse surface of the prism is coated with EDM NIR-I std curve, a coating specifically designed for use in the NIR region. This coating helps to enhance the prism's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission in the specified wavelength range.

The prism's base shape is a volume shape, which refers to the prism's overall design and construction. This shape, combined with the prism's right-angle geometry, makes it an ideal choice for applications that require precise angle refraction and reflection.
