The 84-508 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Edmund Optics. This prism is designed for use in the visible light spectrum, specifically at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. It is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular choice in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range.
The prism features a right-angle design, which is useful for a variety of applications such as beam deflection, image reflection, and dispersion. The geometry of the prism includes legs that measure 15.0 mm each, and a hypotenuse that measures 21.2 mm. This specific size and shape make it suitable for use in compact optical systems where space is a constraint.
The prism is coated with the EDM VIS-0 STD curve on both the front and right surfaces. This coating enhances the prism's performance in the visible light spectrum, improving transmission and reducing reflection. The coating is standard, ensuring reliability and consistency in its performance.
