The 66-771 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is made of N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range. The prism's geometry features two legs of 0.5 mm each and a hypotenuse of 0.7 mm, making it a compact and efficient optical element.
The prism's coating is a 0.5 mm protected aluminum layer, specifically designed for a wavelength of 587.6 nm. This coating enhances the prism's reflectivity and durability, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications, from simple beam folding to more complex optical systems. The coating is also designed to operate within a broad wavelength range, from 400 nm to 2000 nm, providing versatility and adaptability.
The right-angle design of this prism allows for total internal reflection, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring precise angle control and minimal light loss. The prism's Base Shape is Volume, indicating that it is a thick prism designed to provide superior optical performance.
