AX125-B 12.7 mm Dia. UVFS Plano-Convex Axicon Prism; 5 mm AR 650-1050nm

The AX125-B is a high-quality Axicon Prism from Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the optical industry. This prism, with a diameter of 12.7 mm, is designed for use in a variety of optical systems, particularly where beam shaping or collimation is required.

The prism features a unique geometry, with a thickness of 5 mm at the edge and 5.6 mm at the center. This convex shape, characterized by the alpha value of 0.08726646259971647, is designed to focus or collimate light beams in a precise manner. The convexity of the prism allows for superior control over the beam's shape and direction, making it an ideal choice for applications that require precise beam manipulation.

The AX125-B is made from UVFS, a material with a refractive index suitable for a wide range of wavelengths. In this particular prism, the material is optimized for use with a wavelength of 850 nm. This makes it a versatile component in systems operating in this wavelength range.

The prism is coated with a broadband anti-reflective coating (AR) on the front surface, specifically designed for the 650-1050 nm range. This coating reduces unwanted reflections, improving the efficiency and performance of the optical system.
