The RPSQ-40-2L 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 geometry of 40 mm x 40 mm x 40 mm, making it a substantial component for various optical applications.
Fused silica, also known as fused quartz, is a glass material with a low coefficient of thermal expansion and a high transmission range, making it ideal for use in the ultraviolet (UV), visible, and infrared (IR) regions of the spectrum. This material is particularly suitable for applications that require high precision and durability.
The 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. However, it's important to note that uncoated prisms may exhibit higher reflectivity at certain wavelengths compared to coated prisms.
