RPB-04-4M N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 4 mm Uncoated

The RPB-04-4M N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component designed for precise light manipulation in various applications. Sourced from OptoSigma, this prism boasts a right-angle geometry and a 4 mm edge length, making it suitable for compact optical systems.

The prism is crafted from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties. This particular Schott glass variant offers a high Abbe number, low dispersion, and excellent homogeneity, ensuring superior light transmission and minimal chromatic aberration.

The right-angle shape of the prism allows for 90-degree deflection of light, making it ideal for beam steering, splitting, and combining applications. The 4 mm edge length provides a balance between compactness and optical performance, ensuring efficient light manipulation in a variety of setups.

This prism comes uncoated, offering users the flexibility to apply custom coatings based on their specific application requirements. However, the uncoated version still provides good performance in air, with a reflection loss of approximately 4% at the first surface for the central wavelength of 587.6 nm.
