The RPB4-10-550 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from OptoSigma. This prism is designed for use in a wide range of optical systems, offering excellent performance and durability.
The prism is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material due to its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. The glass is cut and polished into a right-angle prism geometry, which is ideal for a variety of applications such as beam deflection, image reflection, and light splitting.
The prism features 10mm protected aluminum legs on both the front and right faces. This coating not only protects the glass from environmental hazards but also enhances its optical performance. The aluminum coating provides high reflectivity (approximately 87% at 550nm) and excellent durability.
The geometry of the prism is defined by its dimensions. The prism has a length of 10mm, with the base and height each also measuring 10mm. This compact size makes it suitable for use in compact optical systems.
