The RPB3-30-550 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from OptoSigma, a leading vendor in the field of optical elements. This prism is designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, offering superior performance and durability.
The prism is made from N-BK7 Schott, a popular and versatile optical glass that offers excellent optical properties. It is designed for a wavelength of 550nm, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications that operate within this wavelength range.
The prism features a right-angle design, which is commonly used in optical systems to change the direction of light propagation. The geometry of the prism is defined by its length and the dimensions of its two bases, which are both 30mm. This size offers a good balance between compactness and light-gathering capability.
The hypotenuse of the prism is coated with a protected aluminum coating, identified as opt krpb4 protal. This coating is designed to enhance the prism's performance by reducing reflection and increasing transmission. The 'protected' aspect of the coating refers to a layer that shields the aluminum, providing durability and resistance to environmental factors.
