The HO-PP-5 N-BK7 Penta Prism is a high-quality optical component designed for precise beam deviation and reflection. Sourced from Holmarc Opto-Mechatronics, this penta prism boasts a robust and versatile design, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries.
The prism is made of N-BK7 glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. With a refractive index of 1.5168 at the specified wavelength of 632.8 nm, this prism ensures optimal light transmission and minimal optical aberrations.
The prism's geometry is defined by its three dimensions, each measuring 5 mm. This compact size, combined with its 1.5707963267948966 beam deviation angle, makes the HO-PP-5 N-BK7 Penta Prism an ideal choice for space-constrained setups that require precise beam manipulation.
Notably, this prism comes uncoated, providing users with the flexibility to apply custom coatings based on their specific requirements. However, the uncoated version may exhibit higher reflectivity at the air-glass interface, which could affect the overall system performance. Therefore, users are advised to consider the implications of the uncoated surface when integrating this prism into their optical systems.
