• Component type: Right‑angle prism
• Manufacturer: CVI Laser Optics (a well‑known supplier of precision optical components)
• Part number: RAP‑100‑UV
• Material: UV‑grade fused silica (UVFS) — excellent transmission and low absorption in the ultraviolet (UV) wavelength region.
• Size: ~25.4 mm edge length (1.0 inch).
Right‑angle prisms are wedge‑shaped pieces of optical glass that redirect or bend light — in this case through a 90° turn — using total internal reflection. They’re widely used in laser optics, imaging systems, beam steering, and precision measurement setups.
