Optical Surfaces Ltd. has developed large, high-quality prisms for spectroscopic applications. Their prisms are solid optics that are ground and polished into specific angles, positions, and number of surfaces to help define optically relevant type and function. Spectroscopic applications usually demand very strict tolerances and accuracies for their prism specifications. Thus, an experienced prism manufacturer is needed to meet the high standards for spectroscopic application.
Optical Surfaces is able to produce all types and configurations of prism (amici/roof, bi-Fresnel, corner cube retroreflectors, dove, equilateral, isosceles, penta, rhomboid and wedge) with market-leading tolerances. Their ISO 9001-2015 approved manufacturing facility is able to produce high-quality prisms to customer supplied specifications.
Each prism is manufactured from high-quality optical glasses. Prisms are available as single components (up to 450mm) or as cemented units. Optical Surfaces production team routinely achieves angle accuracy of better than 2 arc seconds, surface accuracy of lambda/20 p-v, 10/5 surface quality and microroughness of less than 1.2nm rms on its prisms.
