Precision Prism Manufacturer

MLOptic specializes in producing a variety of precision prisms that play a crucial role in beam splitting and dispersion. Our prisms are widely used in dual-channel instruments, anamorphic optical systems, and imaging systems. One of the most critical parameters when specifying requirements is the prism angle tolerance.

Prism Classification

· Right Angle Prisms

Right Angle Prisms can be used for beam deviation and retro-reflection. They are often preferable to plane mirrors because they are easier to mount and align. High throughput is attained when the hypotenuse is used in total internal reflection (TIR), and the entrance and exit surfaces are anti-reflection coated.

· High Precision Glued Prisms

MLOptic offers prism bonding services, including optical glue and adhesive bonding. Precision-glued prism assemblies with a total of 10 prisms can be provided while maintaining the overall angle tolerance within 5 seconds. Precision right-angle prisms are made of high-grade materials and are mainly used in the laser field using glass and fused silica materials.

· Wedges

Wedges serve to deflect light and steer beams in optical systems such as range finders and variable focus assemblies. MLOptic can provide wedges in various sizes and angles according to customer requirements.

· Penta Prisms

The penta prism provides stable light deviation of 90 degrees regardless of the angle of incidence. Standard penta prisms have applications in image erecting assemblies and are used as laser insertion prisms for range-finding and advanced surveillance.

· Dove Prisms

Dove prisms are used to rotate the image plane so that the incoming and outgoing rays are parallel. A Dove prism is used to rotate, invert, or retroreflect an image, depending upon the prism's rotation angle and the surface through which the light enters the prism.

· Rhombus Prisms

A rhomboid prism can shift light laterally without changing its direction of propagation. Rhombus prisms are widely used in instruments such as stereo microscopes and periscopes.

· Roof Prisms

The roof prism replaces one reflecting surface of the ordinary relay prism with a roof surface with a mutual angle of 90°. It is suitable for optical applications where both beam steering and erection are required.

· Pyramid Prisms

Pyramid prisms allow the reflected light for any angle of incidence to emerge parallel to the incident light. Pyramid prisms are often used for target determination and increased speed of alignment.

Integral Rod

The integral rod product is a special type of optical device that utilizes the principle of Total Internal Reflection (TIR) to transmit and homogenize radiation from very non-uniform light sources. They are sometimes also referred to as homogenizing rods, light guides, light funnels, or waveguides.
