65-594 N-SF11 Equilateral Prism; 45.00mm MgF2 400-700nm

The 65-594 N-SF11 Equilateral Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed for use in the 400-700nm wavelength range, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.

The prism is made from n-SF11 Schott, a popular material known for its excellent optical properties. The equilateral shape of the prism, where all three faces are equal in size and angle, ensures consistent light refraction and minimal loss. The length of each face of the prism is 45.00mm, making it a substantial and robust optical element.

The prism features a standard MgF2 coating on all three faces (front, left, and back). This coating is designed to enhance the prism's performance by reducing surface reflections and increasing transmission. The coating is curved according to the standard EDMMGF2 curve, ensuring optimal light transmission and minimal distortion.

In terms of geometry, the prism has an alpha angle of 1.0471975511965976, which is a critical parameter in determining the prism's refractive properties. The base shape of the prism is volume, indicating that it is designed to manipulate light in three dimensions.
