Description
Right-angle prism deflects incident light by 90° or 180°. When light is incident from one right-angle side of the prism, the light will undergo total internal reflection at the glass/air interface of the beveled side and exit from the other right-angle side. When the light beam is incident from an oblique plane, the beam will be totally reflected at the junction of the two right-angle surfaces with the air, deflected 180° and exit from the oblique plane. UMOPTICS offers calcium fluoride right-angle prisms in a variety of sizes.

Features
Right-angle prism is a common optical element, usually used to turn the optical path or deflect the image formed by the optical system by 90°. It has a larger contact area, as well as angles of 45° and 90°, making it easier to install than ordinary reflectors and has better stability and strength against mechanical stress.
Applications
Right-angle prisms can be used to reflect and redirect light, changing the direction of the beam. It can also be used in optical systems as beam splitters, beam combiners and imaging elements to improve the performance and stability of optical systems.
