Description
Prisms are essential components in the field of optics, known for their ability to manipulate light in various ways. These transparent optical blocks are crafted with precision, featuring at least two flat, polished sides that are inclined at controlled angles. This unique design allows prisms to deflect, deviate, and rotate beams of light, as well as disperse their wavelengths. Each type of prism is shaped to perform specific optical tasks, making them invaluable in a wide range of applications.
Tower Optical is renowned for its extensive range of high-quality prisms, including Penta Prisms, Right Angle Prisms, Dove Prisms, Roof Prisms, Corner Cube Reflectors, Anamorphic Prisms, Wedge Prisms, and specialized polarizers such as Glan-Taylor Prisms, Wollaston Prisms, and Rochon Prisms. These prisms are meticulously crafted to meet the diverse needs of various industries, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
For those seeking right angle prisms, Tower Optical offers three distinct quality standards: Standard Grade, High Grade, and Laser Grade. Each grade is designed to meet specific requirements, with variations in dimensional tolerance, flatness, surface quality, angle tolerance, pyramid error, and bevel specifications. Additionally, these prisms are available in UV grade Fused Silica and other materials, with optional optical coatings for anti-reflection, mirror, or beamsplitter applications.
At Tower Optical, customization is key. We offer custom versions of all our products, tailored to your specific drawings or specifications. Our commitment to quality and precision ensures that every prism we produce meets the highest standards, providing you with the tools you need for success in your optical endeavors.
