The 84-865 is a Wedge Prism with a circular base shape, sourced from Edmund Optics. This uncoated prism boasts a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, making it a compact yet robust solution for various optical applications.
The prism's wedge angle is 0.1796624478710443 degrees, providing a subtle yet effective deviation of light paths. This feature is particularly useful in applications requiring precise light control, such as beam steering or angle compensation.
The prism is made of UVFS (Mal-1965), a type of fused silica known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency and resistance to thermal shock. This material is particularly suitable for use in the ultraviolet region, making this prism an ideal choice for applications involving UV light.
The prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers to enhance its optical properties. While this may result in a slightly lower transmission rate compared to coated prisms, it ensures a broader spectral range and eliminates the potential for coating-induced distortions.
The 84-865 is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through the Edmund Optics website, as indicated by its "Valid - in stock" weblink status.
