The 47-932 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed with a right-angle geometry, featuring two legs of equal length and a hypotenuse. The legs measure 30.0 mm each, while the hypotenuse measures 42.4 mm, providing a substantial surface area for light reflection and refraction.
The prism is crafted from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass manufactured by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, including a high refractive index and low dispersion, making it ideal for a wide range of optical applications.
The prism's surfaces are coated with specific coatings to enhance its performance. The front and right surfaces are coated with an edm d vis0 std curve coating, which is designed for visible light with a wavelength of 587.6 nm. This coating helps to reduce reflection and improve transmission, enhancing the prism's overall efficiency.
The back surface of the prism is coated with an edm dprotal300200000 coating. This coating is an aluminum coating that is highly reflective, making it suitable for applications where reflection is desired. This coating is often used in laser applications, where the reflection of light is crucial.
