Frequently Asked Questions

A Right Angle Prism is used to turn or deflect a beam through 90° or 180°.

Total internal reflection is achieved by ensuring that the incoming beam is collimated and enters the prism at a normal angle of incidence.

Right Angle Prisms are available in either fused silica or BK7 glass.

Right Angle Prisms are suitable for laser optics, spectroscopy, and nonlinear optics.

Laser quality Right Angle Prisms have been manufactured with high precision and selected for low scatter, while laboratory quality prisms are suitable for general laboratory use.
