Right angle prisms are simply triangular blocks of glass with two 45° and one 90° angles. The precision grade right angle prisms have high surface quality and tight tolerance angles. The normal use for a right-angle prism is to turn light through 90° by internal reflection from the hypotenuse. These right angle prisms are stocked with a variety of coatings to meet a variety of applications. The simplest is a totally uncoated right angle prism; uncoated right-angle prisms will rely on total internal reflection and so is limited in the angular range it will reflect. Prisms coated with a standard reflecting coating, generally aluminium, will work over a wider range of incidence angles. 

These are commonly known as protected right angle prisms. Another option is to apply a conventional mirror coating on the hypotenuse surface, which allows the prism to be used as a mirror but mounted from behind, these types of prism are commonly known as external reflector prisms. We also supply a stock range of extended broad band anti-reflective right angle prisms coated on the input and output faces to improve efficiency. Right angle prisms are generally used to bend light, reflect light and for image displacement.

Stock right angled prisms are available to purchase directly from this site. We also offer custom right angled prisms in unique sizes and designs to meet our customers individual requirements.
