K9 Dove Prism
The substrate of the Dove Prism is K9 material. K9 is a common glass brand in China, and it shares many similar characteristics with Bk7.

The K9 dove prism is an optical prism that can be used to rotate, reverse deflect or invert images.

Also, its shape is like a triangular right-angled prism, with the top section cut off or truncated.

If the light enters through an inclined surface and propagates along the longitudinal axis of the prism, it will reflect once from the bottom surface and then appear from the other short side.

Optical Characteristics

Chenyu dove prisms can achieve high-precision image rotation and minimize optical distortion.

Also, these prisms have excellent surface quality and flatness, ensuring outstanding performance in various optical systems.

We use k9 glass to guarantee the excellent performance of the prisms.

Key Features of Dove Prisms

  • Image Rotation: A Dove prism can rotate an image by twice the angle at which the prism itself is rotated.
  • Compact Design: With its simple geometry, it offers high performance in a relatively small size.
  • High Precision: Dove prisms provide excellent surface quality and minimal light loss.
  • Wide Wavelength Range: Depending on the substrate, people often choose them from visible to infrared applications.

Applications of Dove Prism

  • Beam Rotation Systems
  • Astronomical Instruments
  • Laser Scanning & Metrology
  • Optical Communications
  • Biomedical Imaging
