PTK4001 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 40 mm AR 450-900nm Legs

The PTK4001 is a right-angle prism made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass developed by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for a wide range of optical applications. The prism has dimensions of 40 mm x 40 mm x 40 mm, providing a substantial surface area for light reflection and refraction.

The prism features anti-reflection (AR) coatings on both the front and right faces. These coatings, specifically KNI AV2, are designed to reduce surface reflections and increase transmission in the visible and near-infrared spectrum (450-900 nm). This makes the prism ideal for use in systems where high transmission and minimal loss are critical, such as in imaging, laser, and spectroscopic applications.

The prism's right-angle design allows for 90-degree deflection of light, making it a versatile component in many optical systems. It can be used to change the direction of light paths, combine or separate beams, or introduce a known phase shift between two beams.
