35-741 12.5 mm Dia. N-BK7 Wedge Prism; t=1.5 mm Uncoated

The 35-741 is a 12.5 mm diameter Wedge Prism, manufactured from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent homogeneity and low optical dispersion. This specific prism has a thickness of 1.5 mm and a wedge angle of approximately 0.369 degrees, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired, or where cost is a significant factor. However, it's important to note that uncoated prisms may have higher reflectivity at the air-glass interface, which could impact the overall system performance.
