PTK1502 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 15 mm Protected Aluminium 450-650nm Hypotenuse
This is a PTK1502 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism, a high-quality optical component sourced from Knight Optical. The prism is made of N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties, including low dispersion and high homogeneity. This particular prism has a right-angle geometry, making it ideal for applications that require light deflection or reflection.
The prism measures 15 mm by 15 mm, with all three sides being equal in length, making it a cube-shaped prism. This volume shape ensures a high refractive index, which is beneficial for applications that require significant light bending.
The prism's coating is a protected aluminium finish, specifically designed for the 450-650 nm wavelength range. This coating enhances the prism's reflectivity, making it suitable for use in laser applications. The aluminium is also protected, ensuring the prism's longevity and durability.
The back of the prism is coated with KNI MV2, a proprietary coating from Knight Optical. This coating is designed to enhance the prism's performance in specific applications, providing improved transmission and reduced reflection.
