The PS990 N-BK7 Dove Prism is a high-quality optical component designed for a wide range of applications. Manufactured by Thorlabs, this prism is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a popular material known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold.
The prism features a Dove shape, which is characterized by its symmetrical, wedge-like design. This particular model has a base angle of 5 degrees, an apex angle of 7.1 degrees, and a length of 21.1 millimeters. The 5-millimeter edge length makes it suitable for use in systems with limited space.
The prism is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surfaces to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where maintaining the prism's natural optical properties is crucial. However, it's important to note that uncoated prisms may exhibit higher levels of reflection at the air-glass interface, which could impact overall system performance.
