The 49-443 is a 25 mm diameter Wedge Prism made from N-BK7 Schott glass, featuring a thickness of 3 mm and a wedge angle of 0.2591813939211579 degrees. This prism is sourced from Edmund Optics and is available for purchase directly from their website, with the current status indicating it is in stock.
The prism's geometry is designed to refract and deviate light, making it ideal for a variety of applications such as beam steering, image splitting, and angular measurement. The 25 mm diameter provides a generous aperture for efficient light handling, while the 3 mm thickness ensures robustness and durability.
The N-BK7 Schott glass is a high-quality material known for its excellent optical properties, including low auto-fluorescence and high damage threshold. This makes the 49-443 suitable for use in high-power laser applications.
The prism's surfaces are coated with the EDM VIS-0 std curve coating on both the front and back. This coating is designed to enhance the prism's performance in the visible light spectrum, specifically between 425 and 675 nanometers. The coating provides improved transmission and reduces surface reflections, thereby increasing the prism's overall efficiency.
