The PS701 ZnSe Right Angle Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs, a leading 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 ZnSe (Zinc Selenide), a material with a refractive index of 2.42 at 10.6 µm, making it an ideal choice for mid-infrared applications. The prism is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where the natural properties of the material are desired.
The prism has a right-angle design, which means it has a 90-degree angle between its two reflecting faces. This design is commonly used in optical systems to change the direction of light. The prism also has a volume base shape, which means it is a solid piece of material with flat, polished surfaces.
The prism measures 10 mm in length and 14.1 mm across its base. This compact size makes it suitable for use in a variety of systems where space is at a premium. The prism is currently in stock, according to the vendor's website, ensuring quick delivery for your optical project needs.
