The 311-1101E is a precision wedge prism from EKSMA Optics, a leading vendor in the optical components industry. This prism, designed for use in a variety of optical systems, is characterized by its circular base shape with a diameter of 12.7 mm and a thickness of 6 mm.
The wedge angle of this prism is 0.017453292519943295 radians, or approximately 1 degree, providing a subtle but precise deviation in the path of light. This makes it ideal for applications that require precise angular deviation, such as beam steering or optical alignment.
The prism is made from UVFS, a material with a refractive index of 1.4573 at 633 nm, the wavelength for which this prism is designed. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for a wide range of optical applications.
Notably, this prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the material are desired, or where the addition of a coating could introduce unwanted complexity or cost.
