The 14RAP-3-1-1 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Standa, a reputable vendor in the field of photonics. This prism, designed for use with a wavelength of 633 nanometers, is made from N-BK7 glass, a popular choice due to its excellent optical properties and wide transparency range.
The prism features a right-angle design, which is versatile and widely used in various optical systems. It has a square base with dimensions of 12.5 millimeters by 12.5 millimeters, providing a substantial surface area for light refraction. The geometry of the prism is classified as a 'Volume' base shape, indicating that it is a solid prism rather than a corner cube or other variant.
Notably, this prism is uncoated. While coatings can enhance the performance of optical components in specific applications, an uncoated prism can offer advantages such as broadband operation, cost-effectiveness, and simplicity. However, it may exhibit higher reflectivity at the air-glass interface, which could be a consideration depending on the application.
