14RAP-4-30-1 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 15 mm Uncoated

The 14RAP-4-30-1 N-BK7 Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Standa, a renowned vendor in the field. This prism is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, offering excellent performance and reliability.

The prism is made from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass manufactured by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion, making it ideal for applications that require high precision and accuracy. The prism's geometry features dimensions of 15 mm x 15 mm, providing a substantial optical path for light to traverse.

As a Right Angle Prism, it is designed to reflect light at a 90-degree angle. This is achieved through total internal reflection, a phenomenon that occurs when light travels from a high-index material to a low-index material at a certain angle. The prism's base shape is a volume prism, which means it has three faces forming a closed solid.

The prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surfaces. This can be beneficial in certain applications where a specific coating is not required or desired. However, it's important to note that uncoated prisms may exhibit higher levels of reflection, which can lead to light loss in the system.

This prism is designed for use with a wavelength of 633 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is currently in stock and available for immediate use. For more information, please refer to the vendor's website.
