Prisms are transparent optical elements with flat polished surfaces that refract, reflect or disperse light. They can be positioned rather easily inside an optical system and offer excellent thermal stability. Total internal reflection is possible to avoid light loss in the optical path.
Materials: Optical glasses such as N-BK7HT, N-BAK4HT, N-SK2HT, SF57HTultra, SF6HT and Fused silica.
