The 34-409 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) spectrum, specifically between 600 and 1050 nanometers, making it ideal for a wide range of applications in this wavelength 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 25 millimeters each and a hypotenuse of 35.4 millimeters, providing a compact and efficient design.
The hypotenuse surface of the prism is coated with the EDM NIR-I std curve coating. This anti-reflection coating is specifically designed for use in the NIR spectrum, reducing surface reflections and improving transmission. The coating is applied to the back surface of the prism, ensuring optimal performance when the prism is used in a right-angle configuration.
In terms of shape, the prism is a right-angle prism, which is a type of prism that reflects light through a 90-degree angle. This makes it ideal for applications such as beam splitting, beam turning, and image reflection. The prism's base shape is a volume shape, which refers to the prism's overall shape and size.
The prism's current status is in stock, according to the vendor's website. This means that it is readily available for purchase and use in your optical systems. For more information, you can visit the vendor's website using the provided weblink.
