PS859 N-SF11 Equilateral Dispersive Prism; 20mm Uncoated

The PS859 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 those requiring dispersion or beam deviation.

The prism is made from N-SF11 Schott glass, a material known for its excellent optical properties. It has a cubic geometry with each side measuring 20mm, making it a substantial yet manageable size for most applications. The prism's base shape is a volume prism, and its shape is equilateral, meaning all its sides and angles are equal. This specific shape is often used in applications where a high degree of dispersion is required.

The prism is uncoated, which means it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired. However, it's important to note that uncoated prisms may have higher reflectivity at certain wavelengths, which could affect their performance in some setups.

The prism is designed to work with a wavelength of 632.8nm, which is a common wavelength used in many optical systems. It's in stock and ready for immediate use, as indicated by its valid weblink status.
