The PS853 N-SF11 Equilateral Dispersive Prism is a high-quality optical component sourced from Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the field of optical equipment. This prism is designed for use in a variety of applications, particularly where dispersion and beam deviation are critical factors.
The prism is made from N-SF11 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties. It has an equilateral shape, meaning all three sides (a, b, and c) are of equal length (25mm). The prism's height (h) is also 25mm, making it a cube-like structure. This geometry ensures consistent and predictable light dispersion.
The prism is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. While coatings can enhance certain properties of optical components, an uncoated prism can be advantageous in certain applications where specific coating properties are not required.
The prism is designed to work with a wavelength of 632.8nm, making it suitable for a wide range of laser-based applications. The vendor, Thorlabs, indicates that the prism is in stock, ensuring quick delivery for those who need it.
