35-740 12.5 mm Dia. N-BK7 Wedge Prism; t=1.5 mm Uncoated

The 35-740 is a 12.5 mm diameter Wedge Prism made from N-BK7 glass, sourced from the reputable vendor Edmund Optics. This prism is uncoated, offering a wedge angle of 0.31648578925188775 radians, or approximately 18 degrees.

The N-BK7, or borosilicate glass, is a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion. This specific prism has a thickness of 1.5 mm, providing a balance between durability and light manipulation capabilities.

The uncoated nature of this prism means it does not have any additional layers to alter its optical properties. This can be beneficial in certain applications where minimal reflection or dispersion is required. However, it may also mean that the prism is more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust or moisture.

This prism is suitable for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to, beam steering, angular image deviation, and dispersion control. It is currently in stock, as indicated by its weblink status, making it an ideal choice for those needing a reliable and high-quality optical component.
