The AX7251-E3 is a high-quality Axicon Prism from Thorlabs, designed with precision and durability in mind. This circular prism, with a diameter of 25.4 mm, is made from ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) material, specifically the ZnSe Marple-1964 variant, known for its excellent optical properties.
The prism features a plano-convex geometry, meaning one side is flat while the other is curved. The thickness at the edge is 3.4 mm, while the center thickness is slightly more at 3.6 mm. The axicon angle (alpha) is 0.017453292519943295 radians, providing a precise degree of curvature.
The AX7251-E3 is designed to work with a wavelength of 10600 nm. It comes with an anti-reflective coating on the front surface (tho e3znsearc7000120), which enhances its performance by reducing unwanted reflections and increasing transmission efficiency within the specified wavelength range of 7000-12000 nm.
This prism is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through the Thorlabs website, as indicated by its weblink status. With its robust design and high-performance characteristics, the AX7251-E3 is an excellent choice for various optical applications.
