The 311-1202E is a precision wedge prism, part of EKSMA Optics' extensive catalog of optical elements. This prism, with a diameter of 25.4 mm, is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, particularly where precise angular deviation is required.
The prism is made from UVFS, a material with a refractive index of 1.458 at 633 nm, which is the wavelength specified in the item data. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The wedge angle of this prism is 0.03490658503988659 radians, or approximately 2 degrees. This angle, combined with the prism's refractive index, will cause light to be deviated by a precise amount as it passes through the prism. The thickness of the prism is 6 mm, which is sufficient to provide the necessary optical path length while minimizing unwanted aberrations.
Notably, this prism is uncoated. While coatings can be used to enhance the performance of optical elements in certain applications, they are not always necessary. In the case of the 311-1202E, the uncoated surface will provide broadband transmission with low reflectivity, making it suitable for use in a wide range of wavelengths.
