The RPSQ-15-10H is a Right Angle Prism, a type of prism that reflects light through 90 degrees, made from fused silica, a high-quality glass material. This prism, sourced from OptoSigma, has a geometry defined by its three dimensions, all measuring 15 millimeters, making it a compact and versatile optical component.
Fused silica, also known as fused quartz, is a glass material with a low coefficient of thermal expansion and a high resistance to thermal shock. It is also highly transparent across a wide spectrum, from the ultraviolet to the infrared regions, making it an ideal material for optical components used in various applications.
The Right Angle Prism is a volume prism, meaning it has a triangular shape with all three faces equilateral. This particular prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be beneficial in certain applications where the natural properties of the material are desired.
The prism's dimensions make it suitable for use in compact optical systems where space is at a premium. It can be used in various applications, including but not limited to, beam steering, image reflection, and light splitting.
