What are UV Fused Silica Right Angle Prisms?

UV fused silica right angle prisms are optical components made by fused silica.

And It is designed for light reflection and beam deviation applications.

With transmission from 200 nm to 2.5 μm, these prisms are ideal for ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), and near-infrared (NIR) optical systems.

Also, unlike standard optical glass, UV fused silica offers superior UV transmission, low thermal expansion, and high laser damage resistance, making it suitable for demanding optical setups.

A right angle prism has two perpendicular surfaces and a hypotenuse surface.

Therefore, it can reflect light at 90° or 180° depending on its orientation, making it one of the most versatile prisms in optical design.

 Advantages of Right Angle Prisms

  • Excellent UV Transmission: High transmittance down to 200 nm for UV applications.
  • High Purity Material: Minimal inclusions and bubbles for superior optical quality.
  • Thermal & Mechanical Stability: Low coefficient of thermal expansion ensures performance in varying environments.
  • High Laser Damage Threshold: Also, it is suitable for high-power laser optics and UV laser systems.
  • Versatile Functionality: Used for image rotation, retroreflection, and beam deviation.

 

Applications of Right Angle Prisms

  • Laser Systems:

Beam steering, alignment, and retroreflection in UV and high-power lasers.

  • Spectroscopy:

UV and visible range optical systems requiring high transmission.

  • Imaging & Detection Devices:

Also, it is suitable for cameras, sensors, and microscopes with UV/Vis optics.

  • Scientific Research:

Optical experiments and interferometry.

  • Aerospace & Defense:

Precision optical assemblies requiring stability and UV performance. Therefore, people often choose them in aerospace.
