45-558 25 mm Dia. N-BK7 Wedge Prism; t=3 mm VIS-NIR 400-1000nm

This 45-558 optical component is a Wedge Prism, a type of prism with a triangular base and an apex angle that causes light to be refracted as it enters and exits the prism. The wedge prism is characterized by its base shape, which is circular, and its material ID, which is n-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass due to its excellent optical properties and availability.

The prism has a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, making it a compact yet robust optical element. The wedge angle is 0.03374245042880637 degrees, which is sufficient to cause a noticeable deviation in the path of light without introducing significant distortion.

The prism is coated with edm visnir0sp2002000 on both the front and back surfaces. This coating is designed for the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) regions of the spectrum, specifically from 400 to 1000 nm. The coating enhances the prism's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the optical system in which it is used.

The vendor for this prism is Edmund Optics, a leading supplier of optical components. The prism is currently in stock, as indicated by the weblink status, and the weblinks provided offer more information and the possibility to purchase the item.
