The 14RAP-2-30-1 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Standa, a reputable vendor in the field of photonics. This prism is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, leveraging the properties of N-BK7 glass to manipulate and control light.
The prism features a right-angle design, which is a common geometry in optical systems due to its ability to reflect or refract light at precise angles. The geometry of the prism is defined by its dimensions, with this particular model boasting a width and height of 10 mm each. This size makes it suitable for use in compact optical systems where space is at a premium.
The prism is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. This type of glass, also known as borosilicate crown glass, has a low refractive index and low dispersion, making it ideal for applications that require precise light control. The glass is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties.
The prism is designed to work with light at a wavelength of 633 nm. This wavelength falls within the visible light spectrum, making this prism suitable for use in systems that work with visible light.
