Customer testimonial:
Last year your company provided two custom Pellin Broca prisms for our research project. These optical components are performing very well.

We now need a third Pellin Broca prism. This needed component must be of similar size to those delivered last year with a 30 mm x 30 mm aperture. It should also be made of UV Grade Fused Silica. The optical surfaces should again be lambda / 10 at the HeNe wavelength and have a Mil Spec Scratch/Dig of 20/10.

The only significant difference from the fused silica Pellin Broca prism your company supplied last year, is the effective wedge angle of the dispersing prism in the Pellin Broca. Prisms delivered last years have non-standard 45 degrees for their effective wedge angle. We now need a prism with the standard effective wedge angle of the dispersing prism which is 60 degrees for a Pellin Broca. The drawing below of a standard Pellin Broca prism is from Wikipedia.





The prism width into the plane of the drawing must be 30 mm. The distance A-B must be 45 mm to yield a 30.5 mm x 30 mm aperture.

Original inquiry:

I need a large (~40mm) custom CaF₂ or MgF₂ dispersing prism in a Pellin Broca configuration.

Del Mar Photonics featured components

Del Mar Photonics continuously expands its components portfolio.

Solar Prisms for Concentrating Photovoltaic Systems (CPV) Solar cells made of compound semiconductors such as gallium arsenide are very expensive. Usually very small cells are installed and various means such as mirrors, lenses, prisms, etc..are used  to concentrate sunlight on the cells. Concentration photovoltaic technology (CPV) uses the solar radiation with an efficiency of 40%, double that of conventional solar cells Del Mar Photonics design custom Concentrating Photovoltaic Systems (CPV) and supply variety of the optical components for CPV such as solar prisms shown in the picture.   hexagonal light pipes, optical rods

Axicon Lens Axicon lens also known as conical lens or rotationally symmetric prism is widely used in different scientific research and application. Axicon can be used to convert a parallel laser beam into a ring, to create a non diffractive Bessel beam or to focus a parallel beam into long focus depth. Del Mar Photonics supplies axicons with cone angles range from 130° to 179.5° for use with virtually any laser radiation. We manufacture and supply axicons made from BK7 glass, fused silica and other materials. download brochure - request a quote
