The 49-421 N-BK7 Rhomboid Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism, with its unique rhombic shape, is designed for use in the visible light spectrum, specifically between 425 and 675 nanometers.
The prism's dimensions are 8.8 mm in height (c), 12.5 mm in width (a and b), and 17.5 mm in length (d). This size makes it suitable for a variety of optical applications. The prism is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including high homogeneity and low auto-fluorescence.
The prism's surfaces are coated with the EDM VIS-0 STD CURVE coating on both the right and left sides. This anti-reflection coating is designed to minimize surface reflections and increase transmission in the visible spectrum, enhancing the prism's overall performance.
The prism's base shape is a volume prism, which means it has a triangular base and is designed to be used in a converging beam of light. This type of prism is often used for dispersion, beam deviation, or image erection.
