PS914H-A N-BK7 Right Angle Prism; 12.5 mm ARC 350-700nm Hypotenuse
The PS914H-A is a right-angle prism made from n-BK7 Schott glass, a material well-known for its excellent optical properties. This prism, sourced from Thorlabs, is designed with a hypotenuse that is anti-reflection coated for wavelengths ranging from 350 to 700 nm, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of applications.
The prism's geometry is defined by a base length (l) of 12.5 mm and a height (x) of 17.7 mm, giving it a substantial volume. The right-angle shape allows for total internal reflection, making it an ideal component for applications such as beam steering, beam splitting, and image reflection.
The coating on the back surface of the prism is THo A Bbar, a type of anti-reflection coating that reduces surface reflections and increases transmission. This coating ensures optimal performance and minimal loss of light, making the prism a reliable choice for various optical systems.
