The RPSQ-15-2L 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 volume base shape and is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties.
The prism's geometry is defined by its dimensions, all of which are 15 millimeters. This includes the 'a' and 'b' parameters, which are the lengths of the prism's hypotenuse and base, respectively, and the length of the prism itself. The wavelength of this prism is 587.6 nanometers, which is in the visible light spectrum.
The Right Angle Prism is a fundamental component in various optical systems, including beam folding, beam splitting, and image reflection. Its high-quality fused silica material ensures excellent optical performance, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from scientific research to industrial manufacturing.
Please note that the prism is uncoated, which means it does not have any protective layers. This might make it more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust, moisture, or scratches. However, this also means that the prism does not introduce any additional chromatic aberrations or reflectivity changes, making it ideal for applications where these factors are critical.
