83-197 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 10.0 mm Laser V-Coat 405nm on Legs

The 83-197 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed for use with laser systems operating at a wavelength of 405nm, thanks to its specialized laser V-coat 405nm.

The prism is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties. This material is often used in high-precision optical systems due to its low coefficient of thermal expansion and high homogeneity.

The prism features a right-angle design, which is ideal for redirecting laser beams at 90 degrees. The legs of the prism measure 10.0 mm each, while the length of the hypotenuse is 14.1 mm. This compact size makes it suitable for use in a variety of applications where space is limited.

The prism's coating is another notable feature. The front and right sides of the prism are coated with edm las v-coat 405, a specialized coating that enhances the prism's performance in laser applications. This coating helps to increase the prism's damage threshold and reduces unwanted reflections, improving the overall efficiency and reliability of the optical system.
