SO-P17 SERIES
SO-P17 high-precision K9 wedge prisms create a defined angular beam deviation for visible alignment, beam sampling and removal of parasitic back reflections. A rotating wedge pair can provide compact two-axis beam steering.
Product Overview
Engineering Guidance
Select by wedge angle and diameter, then confirm thin-edge thickness, beam deviation at 633 nm, optical power, coating and angular tolerance. The deviation value is tied to the stated wavelength.
Mark the wedge orientation during assembly; reversing or rotating the element changes the beam-deviation direction.
Custom substrate materials, dimensions, angular tolerances and coating bands can be reviewed for prototype and production quantities.
