Description
Right-angle prisms - retroreflectors are versatile optical elements that can function as internal or external reflectors or retro-reflectors. They are often preferred over inclined mirrors in applications involving severe acoustic or inertial loads due to their easier mounting and minimal deformation under external mechanical stress.
These prisms can work as retro-reflectors, turning beams back to their original direction. Various dielectric coatings can be applied to these prisms based on specific requirements.
