PL1-1025C 1 in Dia. N-BK7 Wedged Window; t=0.25 in Uncoated

The PL1-1025C is a wedge window, a type of optical element that is primarily used to prevent internal reflections and to protect the more sensitive components of an optical system. This particular model, sourced from Laser Components, boasts a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm) and a maximum edge thickness of 0.25 inches (6.35 mm).

The wedge angle of this component is 0.017453292519943295 radians, or approximately 1 degree, which is designed to minimize the effects of beam deviation and astigmatism. The material used for this window is N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass that is known for its excellent optical properties, including a high Abbe number and low dispersion. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require high precision and accuracy.

The PL1-1025C is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to enhance its optical properties. However, this does not affect its performance in many applications, and it can be advantageous in situations where cost or simplicity are primary concerns.
