The RPB2-25-550 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from OptoSigma. This prism is designed for use in the visible spectrum, with a central wavelength of 550nm. It is fabricated from N-BK7 glass, a popular material for optical components due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range.
The prism has a cuboid geometry, with each side measuring 25mm. This compact size makes it suitable for use in a variety of optical systems where space is at a premium. The prism's right angle design allows for total internal reflection, making it ideal for use in applications such as beam steering, image reflection, and light splitting.
The prism's surfaces are coated with various optical coatings to enhance its performance. The hypotenuse surface is coated with a Protected Aluminum coating, denoted as 'opt krpb4 protal'. This coating provides high reflectivity in the visible spectrum, making it suitable for use in applications such as laser systems and interferometers. The other surfaces are coated with an Anti-Reflection coating, denoted as 'opt m'. This coating reduces surface reflections, improving transmission and reducing losses.
The prism is in stock and available for immediate purchase from the OptoSigma website. Detailed specifications, including dimensional tolerances and surface quality, can be found on the product page.
