The PS814-A is a high-quality Wedge Prism offered by Thorlabs, a leading global manufacturer of photonics equipment. This prism, with a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm), is designed for use within the wavelength range of 350-700 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The prism is made from n-BK7 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. It has a thickness of 11.33 mm and a wedge angle of approximately 0.3168 degrees, which contributes to a beam deviation angle of 10 degrees. The wedge angle and beam deviation angle are crucial parameters in prism selection, as they significantly influence the light path within the optical system.
The PS814-A prism features anti-reflection (AR) coatings on both the front and back surfaces. These coatings, designated as 'tho a bbar', are specifically designed to minimize reflection losses and improve transmission efficiency. The coating is broadband, ensuring high transmission across the entire specified wavelength range.
The prism's geometry is circular, with a thickness edge of 3 mm. This shape and design provide versatility in integration with various optical systems. The PS814-A is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase, as indicated by its weblink status.
