Unlike conventional triangular prisms or cube beamsplitters, the unique geometry of a Nine-Faced prism offers exceptional flexibility in optical path design. The nine faces allow for more combinations of reflection, refraction, and dispersion, empowering you to achieve advanced optical functions such as:
Multi-channel splitting/combining: Process multiple beam paths simultaneously.
Precision beam steering: Achieve exact beam deflection through specific angular sequences.
Complex spectral manipulation: Design customized dispersion or filtering characteristics.
Compact optical system design: Realize sophisticated optical functions within limited space.
1.Full Customization: This is our core strength! Provide your design drawings or specific requirements (facet angles, dimensions, chamfering, clear aperture, etc.), and we will bring them to life. No limitations of "standard" products — only the perfect prism for your needs.
2.High-Precision Manufacturing: Utilizing advanced CNC machining and precision polishing technologies, we ensure angular tolerances as tight as ±3 arc seconds and surface flatness better than λ/10 @ 632.8nm, meeting the most demanding optical system requirements.
3.Premium Optical Materials: Choose from a range of high-quality materials based on your application:
•N-BK7 / H-K9L: General-purpose optical glass, cost-effective, ideal for visible light applications.
•Fused Silica: Excellent UV transmittance and low thermal expansion, suitable for UV, visible, and near-IR ranges with high environmental stability.
•Calcium Fluoride (CaF₂): Broad transmission range (deep UV to mid-IR), low dispersion, perfect for precision achromatic applications and laser systems.
•Other Specialty Glasses/Crystals (e.g., ZnSe, Ge): Available for specific spectral needs such as IR applications.
4.Precision Optical Coatings: Custom-designed anti-reflection (AR) or reflective coatings (e.g., protected aluminum, enhanced aluminum, gold, silver, dielectric coatings) tailored for each face. Optimized for UV, visible, or IR wavelengths, significantly improving transmission efficiency or achieving specific reflectivity. Custom AR coatings can achieve Rabs < 0.25% @ specified wavelength.
5.Exceptional Surface Quality: Surface cleanliness and quality strictly adhere to 60-40 scratch-dig standards or higher, minimizing scattered light and ensuring clear imaging and high signal-to-noise ratio.
6.Durability: Precision-edged chamfering enhances mechanical strength and prevents chipping.
