Product Description
Tower Optical Corp. has expanded its line of
precision optics to include standard micro prisms, coated and uncoated, for use
with laser sources and imaging applications. The micro prisms are right angle,
45°-90°-45° prisms,
whose sizes range from
0.5mm to 5.0mm with a format of A=B=C.
These Right Angle Prisms are used to deflect a light
beam 90° or 180° as shown above. Depending on prism
orientation, images will be inverted, but correct left to
right. If the prism is rotated 90°, images viewed through it
will be erect, but reversed left to right.
Coated prisms can also be used as mirror reflectors
with respect to incoming light. Uncoated prisms act as mirrors
for light incident on one of the short sides since incident light is
totally internally reflected at the hypotenuse. |
