Right-angle prism mirrors are extremely versatile optical components, commonly used as individual prisms and components of optical assemblies. A beam of light entering the leg of a right-angle prism mirror will deviate by a nominal value of 90°, while precise rotation of the prism controls beam alignment. When light enters the hypotenuse of the prism, it is commonly called a Porro prism. In this configuration, a light beam will undergo 180° deviation that is invariant in the azimuthal axis, while precise adjustment of the prism controls beam elevation.
Precise Beam Deflection: Provides a precise 90° optical path deflection to help accurately redirect the beam.
Image Orientation: Maintains the original orientation of the image without inversion or reversal.
High Durability: Typically made of rugged optical glass or infrared materials to resist environmental factors and prolonged use.
Easy Alignment: Requires minimal alignment, simplifying setup in optical systems.
Versatile Applications: Suitable for a variety of optical devices, including periscopes, telescopes, and laser systems.
