The 45-401 is a 25 mm diameter Wedge Prism made from N-BK7 Schott glass, featuring a thickness of 3 mm and a nominal wedge angle of 8 degrees. This prism is uncoated, offering users the advantage of customizing their own coating or utilizing it in environments where coating is not necessary.
The N-BK7 Schott glass material is well-known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for various optical applications. The 25 mm diameter of the prism provides a good balance between light-gathering capability and compactness, while the 3 mm thickness ensures structural rigidity and minimal optical distortion.
The 8-degree wedge angle of this prism is suitable for a wide range of applications, including beam deviation, angle measurement, and dispersion control. Due to its uncoated nature, this prism is particularly suitable for use in monochromatic light applications, where reflection losses from anti-reflective coatings can be avoided.
