The 47-622 is a 25 mm diameter Wedge Prism made from N-BK7 Schott glass, featuring a thickness of 3 mm and a 0.44040416614348515 degree wedge angle. This prism, sourced from Edmund Optics, is uncoated and optimized for a wavelength of 632.8 nm. The circular base shape and wedge shape make it suitable for a variety of applications.
The N-BK7 Schott material, also known as B270, is a popular choice for optical elements due to its excellent homogeneity, low auto-fluorescence, and high damage threshold. This prism, in particular, is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers to alter its optical properties. Uncoated prisms are often used in applications where the user desires to minimize reflection losses, as uncoated surfaces have a reflectivity of approximately 4% per surface at normal incidence.
The 47-622 prism's geometry, with a 25 mm diameter and 3 mm thickness, ensures robustness and versatility. The 0.44040416614348515 degree wedge angle allows for precise beam deviation, making it ideal for applications such as beam steering, image splitting, or angular compensation.
Please note that the prism's uncoated nature may make it more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust, moisture, or scratches. Therefore, it is recommended to handle this prism with care and use it in controlled environments.
